Summary

The journal Medicina is excited to announce the launch of a Special issue entitled "Lower Extremity Disease and Injuries", featuring 32 carefully chosen papers that explore a broad spectrum of advancements, challenges, and innovations in orthopedic surgery, specifically focusing on the lower extremities, including from the hip to the foot and ankle. This area, crucial for human mobility, is vulnerable to a variety of issues, emphasizing the need for ongoing research and innovation. This Special Issue showcases groundbreaking work in surgical techniques, rehabilitation protocols, diagnostic advancements, and biomechanical analyses, among others. Each paper not only advances the field of orthopedic surgery but also has practical implications for clinical practice, aiming to enhance patient outcomes. This Special Issue covers a diverse range of topics, reflecting the comprehensive approach needed for lower extremity disorders. It includes cutting-edge treatments for arthritis and ligament injuries and the latest advancements in prosthetics and orthotics, marking significant progress in research and development. We thank our authors, reviewers, and editorial team for their contributions and dedication. Their collective efforts improve our understanding and management of lower extremity diseases and injuries. Readers are invited to explore this Special Issue reprint, which emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration and drives orthopedic surgery forward.
