Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue “Clinical Anatomy Implications and Musculoskeletal Disorders” shall join clinicians, mainly orthopedic, trauma surgeons, and rehabilitation specialists with anatomists and clinicians engaged in imaging modalities, to introduce a new perspective on providing high-quality diagnostic and health care based on current research in musculoskeletal anatomy.
Historically anatomy always was the most important part of any surgical procedure. In the last decades, we have seen massive advances in musculoskeletal surgery, with minimal invasive surgery-arthroscopy of multiple joints, through spinal surgery to more physiological approaches in major joint arthroplasties, foot and ankle surgery, hand surgery, etc. This progress in all of the fields of musculoskeletal medicine is still based on principal anatomical foundation.
The aim of this Special Issue is to provide readers with insight into the application of musculoskeletal anatomy to clinical diagnostic, surgical, and therapeutic practice.
Musculoskeletal pathology is growing worldwide. Solid knowledge of anatomy will serve us to thoroughly understand the pathology and lead us to successful treatment, might this be either less invasive and more anatomical surgery or directly anatomically driven rehabilitation protocol.
It is an honor for us to invite You to submit Your manuscripts in this Special Issue. Original articles, case reports, reviews, and communications are cordially welcome.
