An orthopedic surgeon, or Doctor of Orthopaedics, is a licensed medical professional who examines, diagnoses, and treats diseases and injuries of the musculoskeletal system. This system, also known as the activity or locomotor system, supports and stabilizes the movement of the human skeleton or body. In simple terms, an orthopedic surgeon takes care of bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, tendons, and nerves. The inherent complexity of practice in general orthopaedics lies in the fact that there are 206 bones in the human body. Due to advances in the field; ever-changing equipment, supplies, and instrumentation; and the resultant need for more individualized care, surgeons are becoming increasingly specialized. Typical areas of specialization for orthopaedic surgeons are joint reconstruction; paediatric orthopaedics; hand, spine, and foot surgery; and sports medicine. In addition, oncologic orthopaedics focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of tumours or tumour-like conditions which can grow in the bone or soft tissues of the musculoskeletal system. Orthopaedic trauma surgeons treat critical injuries sustained as a result of accidents; this may require bone grafting or internal fixation of screws, plates, or bone nails to stabilize fractures.
