Aim & Scope

Orthopaedics & Musculoskeletal Surgery Journal (OMSJ) is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal that publishes high-quality research, reviews, and clinical studies in the fields of orthopaedics, trauma, and musculoskeletal sciences. The journal provides a global platform for surgeons, clinicians, researchers, and rehabilitation specialists to share innovations, surgical advancements, and evidence-based practices that improve musculoskeletal health and patient outcomes.

Its core mission is to promote interdisciplinary collaboration across orthopaedics, traumatology, sports medicine, and rehabilitation by integrating clinical research, surgical innovation, and biomedical engineering. The journal aims to foster continuous improvement in orthopaedic surgery, trauma care, and postoperative recovery through the dissemination of impactful scientific and clinical research.

The journal welcomes contributions on a broad range of topics, including but not limited to:

  • Orthopaedic trauma, fracture fixation, and bone reconstruction

  • Arthroscopy, joint replacement, and minimally invasive surgery

  • Spinal disorders, spinal instrumentation, and surgical management

  • Musculoskeletal oncology and tumour reconstruction

  • Sports injuries, ligament repair, and soft-tissue reconstruction

  • Paediatric orthopaedics and congenital deformities

  • Orthobiologics, regenerative therapy, and bone tissue engineering

  • Osteoporosis, bone metabolism, and musculoskeletal aging

  • Rehabilitation, physiotherapy, and functional recovery

  • Biomechanics, prosthetics, and orthopaedic implant design

We invite submissions in the form of original research articles, clinical trials, case reports, and review papers. All manuscripts should aim to advance understanding and practice in orthopaedic surgery and musculoskeletal medicine, contributing to better surgical outcomes and patient care worldwide.
