Axia Journal of Surgery (AJS)

Open science is essential to solving the world’s urgent challenges

About

Supporting researchers to open up every output from their research, including publications and preprints, data, code, protocols, methods, and peer review.

By enabling researchers to share their research openly, together we can increase its use and re-use, speed up scientific advances, deliver efficiencies for research, foster collaboration between disciplines, enable easier translation into economic and societal impact, and improve trust in science. That’s why we support open science across all academic disciplines. By enabling open science practices, and collaborating with partners across the scholarly ecosystem, faster and more effective research systems can be created that operate sustainably and at scale and build an equitable research landscape.

Aims and Scope – Axia Journal of Surgery (AJS)

The Axia Journal of Surgery (AJS) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to publishing high-quality research and clinical advancements in surgical sciences. Our mission is to provide a platform for surgeons, clinicians, and researchers to share innovative surgical techniques, improve patient outcomes, and advance the field of surgery across all specialties.

Scope:

  • General Surgery – Advances in surgical techniques, preoperative and postoperative care, and minimally invasive procedures.
  • Cardiothoracic Surgery – Innovations in heart, lung, and vascular surgeries, including coronary artery bypass and valve repair.
  • Neurosurgery – Brain and spinal surgeries, neurotrauma management, and neuro-oncology advancements.
  • Orthopedic Surgery – Joint replacements, fracture management, and regenerative therapies in musculoskeletal disorders.
  • Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery – Aesthetic and reconstructive procedures, burn treatment, and microsurgery.
  • Pediatric Surgery – Congenital disorders, neonatal surgery, and surgical management of pediatric conditions.
  • Oncologic Surgery – Tumor resections, surgical oncology techniques, and cancer treatment approaches.
  • Gastrointestinal and Colorectal Surgery – Surgical interventions for digestive tract disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, and hernias.
  • Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery – Liver transplantations, gallbladder diseases, and pancreatic surgery.
  • Vascular and Endovascular Surgery – Treatment of aneurysms, arterial bypass procedures, and minimally invasive vascular interventions.
  • Trauma and Emergency Surgery – Management of traumatic injuries, acute care surgery, and critical care innovations.
  • Transplant Surgery – Organ transplantation procedures, immunosuppressive therapies, and donor organ preservation.
  • Robotic and Laparoscopic Surgery – Advances in robotic-assisted procedures, laparoscopic innovations, and minimally invasive techniques.
  • Surgical Education and Training – Simulation-based learning, residency training, and competency assessments in surgery.
  • Surgical Infection and Wound Care – Prevention and management of postoperative infections, wound healing, and antibiotic stewardship.

AJS serves surgeons, surgical residents, medical researchers, and healthcare professionals engaged in advancing surgical practice and patient care.

The journal follows a rigorous peer-review process, ensures international visibility through indexing in major scientific databases, and promotes rapid publication to disseminate high-impact research in surgical sciences.
