Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics – an academic venture of Bombay Orthopaedic Society
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
Bombay Orthopaedic Society (BOS) has always been in forefront of academics and education. Academic courses and content of BOS have always been known for high quality and providing best education to the new generation of orthopaedic surgeon has been the central aim of BOS right from its inception decades ago. Taking ahead the same tradition, BOS had taken the decision of starting its own journal named Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics. This is the second issue of the Journal and the entire editorial team is proud to present it to our readers As is the hallmark of all BOS activities, high quality content is hallmark of Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics (JCO). In this issue we have guest editorial by Dr Sudhir Babhulkar and a perspective article by Dr Shantaram Shetty. Dr GS Kulkarni, Dr Ashok Rajgopal, Dr Ramesh Sen, Dr Raju Vaishya and many more have contributed excellent review articles. Also the issue contains the usual potpourri features that includes, foot and ankle, arthroscopy, paediatric orthopaedics and tuberculosis. Lastly but most importantly the issue contains interview of Dr Sailendra Bhattacharya, the living legend of Orthopaedics. Thus the content of the issue is contributed by the best in orthopaedics from across the country and although the issue was delayed by a month, we could cover the shortcoming by providing excellent quality articles for our readers. The format of JCO will continue to evolve in coming years, but the goal will always be to bring the best reading material which has balance of both experience and evidence based content. The focus would be to bring practically useful content which can be applied to day to day practice. We would like to request our readers to please submit clinically relevant articles, original research, case series, case reports and technical notes to JCO. The Journal has an excellent website and online article submission system which is simple to use and keep record of all your submissions. Preparation of JCO issue for WIROC 2017 is in full swing and we are hopeful to get articles from many more of our readers. We thank our authors and editorial board members for their contributions to the journal. We look forward to making JCO a world recognised indexed journal and we solicit support from all of our readers Regards Dr Nicholas Antao – Editor JCO Dr Ashok Shyam – Associate Editor JCO.
