Everyone's effort

Dear REACA readers,

You have a new monographic issue of our journal in your hands. In this special issue we wanted to highlight those arthroscopic techniques that are popular or have been on the rise in recent years. We have looked for those that we believe could be of great interest to both novice surgeons who want to enter the world of complex arthroscopy and to experienced surgeons who want to add new surgeries to their therapeutic arsenal or simply learn tricks to make their work easier. Unlike previous monographs, this issue has at least one article for each joint, so that everyone, without exception, will be able to find attractive topics for their daily practice.

To make this possible, we have counted on the invaluable collaboration of a group of experienced authors in their fields, of great national and international prestige, who have placed at your (and our) disposal their knowledge, their time and predisposition to write and share their good work. I would like to thank them for their dedication, their patience with the editors and reviewers, and the great effort they have made to produce this issue. Believe me when I tell you that the work has been long and intense, but the aim was ambitious: to achieve a high level of quality in each of the manuscripts so that every reader, no matter what anatomical region he or she may be involved in, will find this issue worth reading. In this respect, it is right to praise the figure of the reviewer. The disinterested work of the reviewers is often thankless, but at the same time is essential if the objective is to secure the quality of the publication, since they are all experts in the subject they have reviewed. I personally appreciate the hard work done in dealing with manuscripts by authors with extensive technical experience and a good number of articles behind them.

I cannot finish without thanking Dr. Pablo Crespo, a good personal friend and excellent professional, for his involvement in the monograph. Ever since the editorial team asked him to form part of it, he has demonstrated a great capacity for work and enthusiasm in ensuring that this monograph is truly valuable, and I can testify to the fact that he has more than fulfilled his commitment.

If I may give you a piece of advice: take advantage of this issue of the journal, look through it, carefully read the article that interests you most, and take away some of the lessons you learn. If we are able to achieve this, then the effort of all those involved will have been worthwhile.
