SOPEN seeks original, high quality basic and clinical science submissions as well as thoughtful, rigorous systematic reviews and meta-analyses that cover general surgery. The scope of SOPEN includes trauma and acute care, hepato-pancreatico-biliary surgery, surgical oncology, colorectal surgery, endocrine surgery, transplant surgery, pediatric surgery, surgical education and bariatric surgery. SOPEN generally does not accept manuscripts focused on obstetrical and gynecologic surgery, orthopedic and spine surgery, plastic surgery, urology, and hand surgery. However, occasional papers from these specialties will be considered if they have clear and important significance to the practice of general surgery. Additionally, case reports and book reviews are not accepted by the journal.
SOPEN provides authors the advantages of open access publishing including allowing author preprints and data sharing, as well as offering a time interval from submission to first decision typically in fewer than 30 days. Rapid online manuscript publication will follow acceptance, and SOPEN has a social media team to promote the authors’ published work.
