Evolving Concepts in Knee Surgery

Dear Colleagues,

The knee joint is one of the largest and most complex joints in the body, located in the central part of the lower limbs. Various pathologies that can afflict the knee joint range from acute traumatic injuries to chronic degenerative disorders such as osteoarthritis. Numerous surgical treatment options have been developed for various types of injuries and disorders. The number of knee surgery procedures is increasing rapidly due to the aging population and sports-related injuries. New techniques in knee surgery are evolving continuously, with satisfactory clinical outcomes. In this Special Issue of Medicina, we intend to introduce concepts and techniques related to recently-developed knee surgeries, along with the clinical outcomes of these new surgical methods. For this Special Issue, we invite authors to submit their original research articles, technical notes, meta-analyses, and review articles on evolving concepts in knee surgeries. They can include all areas of knee surgery such as arthroscopy, arthroplasty, osteotomy, fracture surgery, ligament reconstruction, cartilage regeneration, and new implants and biologic materials related to knee surgeries.
