Call for papers on the surgical management and treatment of dermatologic disease, injury, and neoplasia

A Veterinary Surgery virtual issue on surgical management and treatment of dermatologic disease, injury, and neoplasia is planned for August 2028.

While we welcome a broad array of submissions on this topic, the special issue will emphasize research that advances our understanding of the diagnosis and surgical treatment of dermatologic pathology. Reviews which are well summarized may also be considered for inclusion in this special virtual issue.

Areas of interest include the following:

  • ​advances in surgical techniques
  • ​tissue mechanics
  • ​clinical diagnostics
  • ​diagnostic imaging
  • ​genetics
  • ​morbidity/mortality
  • ​pathophysiology
  • ​surgical anatomy
  • ​surgical instrumentation
  • ​tissue engineering

For consideration, manuscripts must be submitted online by September 30, 2027. When submitting, indicate that the manuscript is intended for a special issue: “Dermatologic Disease, Injury, and Neoplasia”
