Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advances in Limb Reconstruction’ broadly includes orthopedic research into limb lengthening or distraction osteogenesis, limb deformity correction, the treatment of malunions and nonunions, osteomyelitis management, post-neoplastic limb salvage, osseointegration limb reconstruction, and custom or patient specific implants. New approaches, advances to traditional treatment, personalized medicine, or innovative solutions are welcome. Limb reconstruction often requires the creative utilization of the newest developments in orthopedic technology, so research to better understand these tools is prized.
