Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recent advancements in medical technology and surgical techniques have transformed the landscape of hip and knee arthroplasty, enhancing patient outcomes and expanding the scope of treatment options. This Special Issue focuses on the latest innovations, clinical approaches, and long-term results associated with these critical procedures.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Emerging technologies in arthroplasty, such as robotics and AI-driven systems.
  • Optimizing perioperative care to improve patient recovery.
  • New materials and implant designs to enhance joint longevity.
  • Comparative studies on minimally invasive versus traditional surgical techniques.
  • Addressing challenges such as prosthetic infections and revision surgeries.
  • Insights into patient-specific care strategies and their impact on clinical outcomes.

We warmly invite submissions from researchers, clinicians, and industry experts, aiming at fostering a multidisciplinary exchange of ideas and knowledge that will shape the future of hip and knee arthroplasty.

Dr. Andrea Volpin
Guest Editor
