This Special Issue is open to studies for new surgical techniques, surgical strategies and decision making, clinical outcomes, and systematic reviews and meta-analyses.
The aim of this Special Issue will be to deliver new insight into the advanced knee surgeries. Papers focused on updates in knee surgeries are strongly encouraged.
