"International Orthopaedics" is the Official Journal of SICOT. From 2011 onwards, it is published every month by Springer Verlag, Germany, and has a circulation of 3,200. SICOT members have full online access to the journal through the SpringerLink service.
Founded in 1977, it evolved from the publication of selected papers presented at the triennial congresses, but now accepts the best referred papers submitted from around the world. The articles deal with clinical orthopaedic surgery or basic research directly connected with orthopaedic surgery. Each year International Orthopaedics publishes the scientific work of researchers from more than 40 countries. International Orthopaedics is referenced in Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition, PubMed/Medline, Science Citation Index Expanded (SciSearch).
