Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce a new Special Issue, entitled “Novel Advances in Lower Limb Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery”, that will present high-quality articles related to lower limb trauma and orthopedic surgery. We welcome the submission of articles that pertain to lower limb trauma including limb reconstruction surgery, lower extremity elective surgery, and infection, as well as orthopedic research. We will consider all study designs, including systematic reviews with or without meta-analysis, and original prospective and retrospective research papers. We believe that this Special issue will provide clinically meaningful research in the field.
