Orthopedics is a medical specialty that deals with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disorders and injuries of the musculoskeletal system. This system includes bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and nerves that allow the body to move and function.

It employs various methods, including non-surgical and surgical interventions.

The goal of orthopedics is to restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve overall quality of life for patients. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of orthopedics.
