Abstract
Innovation has always been an obvious part of orthopedic surgery. Orthopedics has been moving toward excellence through robotic surgeons, stem cell applications, scaffolds, and minimally invasive methods from a surgical branch that has already achieved good results thanks to plates, intramedullary nails, prostheses, and arthroscopy, which entered our daily practice in the last century.
