Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Primary and secondary osteoarthritis, post-traumatic and oncological sequelae, articular avascular necrosis, fractures and fixations, infections and osteomyelitis continue to represent challenging management problems for orthopaedic surgeons and traumatologists. Bone tissue loss or the poor quality of these clinical pictures have conditioned the operational choices in favour of more invasive and sometimes disabling interventions. Often, the poor quality or quantity of bone substance do not allow standard prosthetic devices to be implanted, or large amounts of cadaveric or autologous bone grafts are required, with related risks and complications.
Today, thanks to technological improvements and research related to planning and production, novel treatment options are coming to the aid of operators by making available different tools, protocols and strategies.
We are proud to present this fascinating Special Issue of Applied Sciences dedicated to “Advances in Orthopedic Diseases Treatment”.
The aim of this Special Issue is to share the personal experiences of groups and authors currently working on articular and periarticular implantology, traumatology and orthopaedic oncology, their perspectives with regard to the opportunities and limits in this field, and the results obtained and the problems that have arisen. This will be conveyed via the submission of high-impact research articles that are of interest to the orthopaedic community.
