Orthopaedic surgery is an operative procedure performed by a qualified orthopaedist specialist or orthopaedic surgeon to treat musculoskeletal problems affecting the bones, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments caused by accident, trauma, injury or chronic condition. Orthopaedic surgery can also correct problems of the nervous system linked to the spinal column, as well as congenital defects and musculoskeletal issues caused by aging.
What Orthopedic Procedures Are Available?
Orthopedic surgery can be used to treat everything from minor issues like a sprained ankle to complex procedures like a hip replacement. As well as sports injuries, sprains and broken bones, orthopedic surgery can effectively treat infections, bone tumors, spine diseases, congenital conditions, joint problems like arthritis, and degenerative diseases like osteoporosis. The most commonly performed orthopedic surgeries include knee replacement, hip replacement, shoulder replacement, carpal tunnel release, spine surgery, construction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), the major stabilizing ligament of the knee. Artificial joints have a lifespan of 10 to 20 years so if you undergo joint replacement surgery and you lead a very active life or you are obese you will likely need another replacement later in life.
