Orthopaedics refers to the bones, muscles and joints of the human body. A doctor specialising in orthopaedics will often handle patients that have suffered bone fractures or who need joint replacement or ligament reconstruction surgery.

Orthopaedics covers a huge range of personal injuries, from diagnosing a broken arm to performing a hip replacement operation. The main areas in which an orthopaedic surgeon will specialise include:

• the hand, shoulder and elbow surgery
• joint reconstruction
• paediatric orthopaedics
• foot and ankle surgery
• back and spine surgery
• musculoskeletal oncology
• surgical sports medicine
• orthopaedic trauma

Negligent treatment can occur as a result of the delay in diagnosing broken bones or fractures, or the performance of incorrect surgical procedures to solve the problem.
