Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to launch a new Special Issue of the renowned journal Bioengineering, titled ‘Recent Advances in Microsurgery, Breast Reconstruction & Tissue Engineering’.
The field of reconstructive microsurgery, particularly breast surgery, has experienced an unprecedented growth in recent years, thereby making it imperative to incorporate innovative biotechnologies to further enhance its efficiency, standardization, and promote better quality of care for the patients.
Therefore, this Special Issue aims to collate papers that focus on the recent advancements and innovations in this field, emphasizing the need for further collaboration between the fields of plastic surgery and industrial engineering, as well as highlighting the current gaps and limitations and providing implications for future research. Some potential topics include the integration of biotechnology in microsurgery, breast reconstruction surgery, limb preservation surgery, lymphedema, and nerve surgery.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Bioengineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
