Orthopaedic is the branch of surgery that deals with the prevention or correction of injuries or disorders of the skeletal system and associated muscles, joints and ligaments.

Some of the orthopaedic procedures are:

• Knee arthroscopy
• Knee/ hip replacement
• Repair of fractures
• Lumbar spinal/ sacroiliac joint fusion

Orthopaedic surgery also covers trauma cases including sustained injuries to the neck, chest, abdomen, extremities and soft tissue, as well as injuries to the vasculature.
