Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The first volume of this Special Issue, entitled “Orthopaedics and Traumatology: Surgery and Research”, can be found at: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/life/special_issues/T949QI3IFW. In 2024, we would like to open Volume II of this Special Issue in order to collect high-quality submissions in the Medical Research Section.
The current Special Issue centers on contemporary surgical or conservative treatment options in Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology, with a specific emphasis on the lower extremities, including the hip, knee, and ankle joints. Ongoing advancements in healthcare and medicine, coupled with extensive research efforts, have led to the refinement of new treatments in Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology. These choices, mainly offering surgical or interventional options, enhance or come after conservative treatments for various conditions.
We seek to compile high-quality studies (original research, reviews, case reports) pertaining to both reconstructive surgery and orthopaedic trauma, with a specific anatomical focus. Our aim is to establish as Special Issue encompassing diverse aspects, ranging from biomedical research to the surgical or conservative treatment of lower-extremity conditions, including potential complications. Ultimately, we aim to contribute valuable insights to the literature and foster the exchange of knowledge within the scientific community on this subject.
