What Is Paediatric Orthopaedic Surgery?

Paediatric orthopaedic surgery treats bone, joint, muscle, and spine conditions in infants, children, and teenagers, from birth defects like clubfoot and hip dislocation to growth-related deformities and childhood fractures. Because children's bones are still growing, paediatric orthopaedic surgeons use techniques and implants designed to correct the problem while protecting future growth.

Conditions commonly treated under paediatric orthopaedic surgery include:
