Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Knee arthroscopy has revolutionized diagnosing and treating various knee pathologies, offering minimally invasive solutions with reduced recovery times. Despite its widespread adoption, challenges remain regarding optimal surgical techniques, patient selection, postoperative rehabilitation, and long-term outcomes. This Special Issue aims to consolidate current advancements, address existing gaps, and explore innovative approaches in knee arthroscopy.
The scope includes original research, systematic reviews, and surgical techniques on ligament reconstruction, meniscal repair, cartilage restoration, and emerging technologies such as robotic-assisted arthroscopy and bioengineered scaffolds. Studies on rehabilitation protocols, patient-reported outcomes, and complication management are also encouraged.
This Special Issue seeks to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, refine surgical indications, and improve patient outcomes in knee arthroscopy by mobilizing orthopedic surgeons, researchers, and rehabilitation specialists.
