Novel and Advanced Technologies for Orthopaedic Implant

Dear Colleagues,

The majority of orthopaedic procedures require the use of implants. Orthopaedic implants are used in both emergency and scheduled operations. Modern orthopaedic surgery techniques involve a variety of new designs of implants, which may provide improved outcomes. There is also extended research regarding new implants, their materials, and how these may affect the result of an orthopaedic operation.

This Special Issue on novel and advanced technologies for orthopaedic implants addresses the innovations in orthopaedic implants—not only those that are already in clinical use, but also implants or devices that are in the experimental stage. Submissions may address any of the fields of orthopaedic surgery, such as adult reconstruction, trauma, hand surgery, spine surgery, and others. We would like to welcome all your submissions and hope for a successful Special Issue.
