Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The treatment and management of Shoulder and Elbow pathology involves deep knowledge of the intricate interplay between anatomy, biomechanics and biology. Topics such as fracture care, ligaments and tendon repair, and the management of osteoarthritis are just the tip of the iceberg. Traditionally, the management of these injuries involves activity modification, physical therapy, a variety of surgical procedures, and pharmacological agents, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids viscosupplementation, narcotics and biologics.
In the last decade, there significant advances have been made in the treatment and management of routine Shoulder and Elbow pathologies; these have returned function to patients and alleviated chronic pain. This collection highlights the current status, challenges, and emerging trends in the treatment and management of shoulder and elbow pathologies. We welcome both basic and translational original research and review articles covering, but not limited to, the treatment and management of the following:
- fractures of the shoulder and elbow;
- rotator cuff pathology;
- shoulder osteoarthritis;
- elbow osteoarthritis;
- ligament and tendon pathology of the shoulder and elbow;
- advances in regenerative medicine.
