Plastic Surgery (PS)
Journal Descriptions
Plastic Surgery is an established international, peer‑reviewed medical journal dedicated to the field of plastic and reconstructive surgery. Since its inception in 1993, the journal has served as the official publication of several Canadian professional societies including the Canadian Society of Plastic Surgeons, the Canadian Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, the Canadian Society for Surgery of the Hand, and the Group for the Advancement of Microsurgery. It publishes original clinical and basic research articles, case reports, review articles, editorials, and continuing medical education content that covers a broad array of topics within plastic surgery — ranging from reconstructive techniques and microsurgical innovations to hand surgery and aesthetic procedures. The journal accepts research that advances clinical practice, informs surgical decision‑making, and addresses educational and ethical issues in the discipline. As a multi‑lingual publication (English and French), Plastic Surgery provides an important platform for academic exchange, particularly in North America and beyond, and encourages submissions that enhance understanding of both emerging techniques and well‑established surgical approaches. It is indexed in major bibliographic and citation databases, supporting discoverability and citation of its published work. Scholars, clinicians, and trainees in plastic and reconstructive surgery rely on the journal for current, peer‑reviewed evidence and practice guidance that aid professional development and patient care.
