Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are proud to announce a call for papers on the current techniques in hip surgery. This issue is devoted to all orthopedic surgeons treating hip disorders at any age. Great emphasis will be given to newer techniques of total hip arthroplasty surgery in terms of biomaterials, long-term results, complications, surgical approaches, and newer technologies. Moreover, our aim is to promote the role of non-arthroplasty/preservative surgery in pediatric, young adult, and active patients and outline how these techniques can improve the quality of life of our patients. Journal of Clinical Medicine Two out of three case reports and surgical techniques on isolated cases are beyond the scope of this supplement. Selected manuscripts on orthopedic oncology will be considered and included.
