A new specialist medical journal “Chirurgia
Kolana, Artroskopia, Traumatologia Sportowa” ( eng.“Knee
Surgery, Arthroscopy, Sports Traumatology”)
is an official magazine of Knee Surgery and Sports Traumatology
Section Board of Polish Society of Orthopedics and Traumatology.
We wanted this new quarterly magazine fulfill the gap
of our medical publication market concerning the research subjects of knee
surgery, arthroscopy and sports traumatology. The
main aim is to make specialized knowledge better understandable for wide groups
of doctors and for creating a location of exchange different points of view of
knee surgery, the use of arthroscopy (not only knee arthroscopy) together with
wide field of sports traumatology. ”Knee Surgery,
Arthroscopy and Sports Traumatology” magazine is
found to be quarterly bilingual publication, which means that papers can be
presented in both Polish and English languages. One of the aims of Editorial Board
is to make the magazine accessible not only for Polish authors but also for
colleagues from other countries meanly neighbours
ones. The title as well as the shape of our magazine is a bit similar to ESSKA
”Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthrocopy” also the subjects intend to be almost the same
concerning beside knee surgery, the surgery of other joints of musculosceletal system.
It
is also very important that the Scientific Board of this journal has joined by
many well known foreign orthopedic surgeons (see: Scientific Board). The
present personal Scientific Board frame is from the one side, a reason of
satisfaction and pride, from the other side
however is a kind of warranty of magazine high scientific level. At present we
prepare the next issues (4 and 5 number). Last 3 numbers was warmly accepted by wide groups of doctors in
