What is pediatric orthopedics?

Pediatric orthopedics focuses on treating bone, joint, back, or muscle deformities in infants to teenagers. These deformities may be congenital or caused by accidents, strenuous activity, or growth anomalies. While general bone issues in children can be treated by a physician, specialized pediatric orthopedic care is needed for specific conditions.

This field is more complex than general orthopedics as it deals with rapidly growing and highly elastic bones, unlike the rigid bones in adults. Some musculoskeletal issues occur only in children, and diagnosing them can be challenging since children may struggle to express their discomfort.

What Types of Problems Do Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeons Treat?

Kids are prone to various musculoskeletal issues. While minor conditions can be treated by general physicians, complex cases require pediatric orthopedic care. Seek immediate attention if your child has:

  • Conditions specific to spine, such as Scoliosis, Kyphosis, and Lordosis
  • Cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, and other neuromuscular issues
  • Crooked limbs, angular deformities, and legs of varying sizes
  • Hip issues, such as Perthes Disease, SCFE, and hip dysplasia
  • Knee deformities, including ACL, OCD, Meniscus tear, Patellar volatility
  • Infections and tumors in joints and bones
  • Fractured bones, bone cysts, and sports injuries
  • Shoulder problems, such as SLAP tears
  • Developmental delays and Down’s syndrome
  • A pediatric orthopedic surgeon is trained to diagnose, treat, and manage these conditions. Some deformities, especially developmental delays, may need a multi-modal approach.

    Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeons: Specialty Care for Children

    Children have unique musculoskeletal needs, and their treatment requires special care. Since a child may not fully express their discomfort due to undeveloped language skills or fear, a pediatric orthopedic surgeon must accurately assess their condition and provide suitable surgical or non-surgical treatments. These specialists are trained to handle the challenges of rapidly growing bones and, if necessary, design a rehabilitation program that involves the child’s family for comprehensive support. For certain musculoskeletal deformities, they may also opt for a multi-disciplinary approach to ensure the best possible care.
