Editor-in-Chief

Professor Manoj Pandey, Banaras Hindu University, India

Dr. Pandey's research has centred on screening, early detection and treatment of oral cancer. His aspiration for high quality research for cancer can be seen from his love of science and dedication to producing research in the specialty. Apart from being Editor-in-Chief of WJSO, he has published a total of 330 publications in his area of expertise.

Featured article: A successful intraoperative diagnosis of coexisting lymphoma and endometrial cancer

Aims and Scope

World Journal of Surgical Oncology publishes articles related to surgical oncology and its allied subjects, such as epidemiology, cancer research, biomarkers, prevention, pathology, radiology, cancer treatment, clinical trials, multi-modality treatment and molecular biology. Emphasis is placed on original research articles.

Call for papers: Colorectal cancer series

Articles are now invited for a thematic series discussing current evidence and future direction of colorectal cancer. The articles must relate to current and future trends in treatment of colorectal cancer. Surgical innovations, laparoscopic and robotic surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, tumor targeting and tailoring therapy for colorectal cancer will all be considered.

COVID-19 and impact on peer review

As a result of the significant disruption that is being caused by the COVID-19 pandemic we are very aware that many researchers will have difficulty in meeting the timelines associated with our peer review process during normal times. Please do let us know if you need additional time. Our systems will continue to remind you of the original timelines but we intend to be highly flexible at this time.
