East African Orthopaedic Journal (EAOJ)

The East African Orthopaedic Journal (EAOJ) is a specialised medical journal dedicated to advancing orthopaedic knowledge and practice across the East African region. Established in the mid‑2000s, its primary purpose is to provide a platform where orthopaedic surgeons, trauma specialists, technologists, and allied healthcare professionals can publish original research, clinical case studies, systematic reviews, and expert commentaries. Through peer‑review and editorial oversight, the journal promotes evidence‑based orthopaedic care, surgical innovation, and the exchange of clinical experiences that address regional challenges in musculoskeletal health. EAOJ emphasises research with practical implications for orthopaedic surgery, trauma management, rehabilitation, and training within resource‑limited settings. Its open‑access format ensures that clinicians, educators, and students across Africa and the world can access its content freely, supporting broader dissemination of knowledge and improving patient outcomes. Topics often cover fracture management, joint disorders, spine surgery, prosthetics, and case reports highlighting unique clinical presentations in African contexts. As the official journal of the Kenya Orthopaedic Association, the journal reflects the association’s mission to foster research, professional development, and collaboration across orthopaedic communities.
