Abstract: This issue marks the final contribution of the current senior editorship, an arrangement which began in 2007.The following year, Hip International was indexed by the National Library in the United States, and this heralded a massive increase in the number of submissions.On-line submission and publication of articles 'ahead of print' followed.It became possible to increase the number of issues and the size of each issue.The impact factor rose steadily, as did the prestige and standing of the journal.The editors have gone to great lengths to ensure the international flavour of the journal, often engaging in extensive scientific rewriting of papers submitted by surgeons whose proficiency in English did not match the value of their work.
