Highlights of Gland Surgery 2015: endocrine surgery

Gland Surgery (GS) is going to publish two special issues related to endocrine surgery in early 2015. The special issue on “Current controversies in endocrine surgery” (Table 1) edited by Prof. Antonio Sitges-Serra, from Hospital del Mar, Spain, will describe the most controversial and burning topics that can be found currently in the specialty of endocrine surgery. Another one is on “New technology in endocrine surgery” (Table 2). Prof. Emad Kandil from Tulane University School of Medicine will serve as the guest editor, presenting a picture of current progress of new technologies in the area of endocrine surgery.

We highly appreciate the kind efforts from both Prof. Sitges-Serra and Prof. Kandil as our guest editors for these special issues. We believe that these two issues would be great additions to the literature and practice on endocrine surgery, which will reflect a collaborative effort from multiple international contributors. Hope you will find articles fall into your research interest.

Free submissions on the topics are welcome to be included to the special issue after peer-review process and the guest editors’ final review.
