Orthopaedic surgeons use surgical and nonsurgical means to treat musculoskeletal trauma, sports injuries, degenerative diseases, infections, tumors and congenital disorders. In particular, both the evaluation and the treatment of hand problems have become increasingly complex functions. Evaluation frequently requires an expert second opinion, and treatment might include such highly sophisticated procedures as micro-surgery, joint replacement or arthroscopic surgery.

Bones connect at joints, like elbows, shoulders and knees, to help people bend and move. Sometimes these joints become damaged from arthritis, injury or other causes. When the damage is severe or does not respond to non-surgical forms of treatment, a joint replacement is needed. Joint replacement is a surgical procedure that removes the damaged part of the joint and replaces it with a prosthetic device. Prosthetic devices may be constructed of metal, plastic or ceramic and they replicate the natural movement of the joint.
