Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, there have been significant advances in prevention, diagnosis and treatment in general surgery, especially in terms of addressing gastrointestinal diseases. This Special Issue aims to showcase some of the most innovative and promising approaches in this field. General surgery is used to treat a broad category of disorders; the scope of this Issue includes a wide range of related topics.

This Issue aims to publish articles that show new diagnostic tools and methods for detecting all types of diseases addressed by general surgery. We are looking to explore the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to analyze medical images and identify early signs of cancer and other gastrointestinal diseases. In addition, we seek to combine these methods with clinical examination, which is the most important aspect of the treatment of patients. We are also looking for new studies and opinions in field of colorectal cancer, as well as investigations into all types of hernia.

In terms of treatment, there are also exciting new developments in general surgery which are still not handled as standard practice.

We accept original articles, clinical trials, systematic reviews and meta-analyses.
