Orthopaedics - is the traditional spelling. It was coined in 1741 by Nicholas Andry when he published his workOrthopaedia: or the Art of Correcting and Preventing Deformities in Children. It is derived from "orthos" (meaning straight or correct) and "paideion" (meaning child). In actuality is was the study of correcting childhood deformities.
Orthopedics or Orthopedic Surgery - is defined as the branch of surgery which deals with conditions of the musculoskeletal system.
Incidentally, the United States uses the orthopedic spelling, while the rest of the world uses the traditional spelling of orthopaedic. However, most residency programs, universities, and even the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and the American Orthopaedic Association us the traditional spelling.
Either spelling is acceptable and most spell checkers will ignore either spelling counting it as correct.
