Abstract:
The Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (KSPRS) has thirty years history. In general the historical review is very important and valuable for the advance of science & technology in the future. So we haute reviewed and analyzed all the papers of The Journal of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (JKSPRS) from No. 1 to No. 89 fort 23 years The results were as follows: 1. The number of papers has been increased from 7 to 183 per year 2. The qualities of JKSPRS have been improved and ranked with other advanced foreign journals. 3. The basic research had much more papers than any other fields. This implied the possibility of Korean plastic sugical progress in the future. 4. Most fields more advanced very rapidly in the last 10 years, particularly head and neck surgery, hand surgery, craniomaxillofacial surgery, aesthetic surgery by innovational skills & new demised instruments. 5, Official clinican's papers would be needed for evenly advancing. 6. Many papers about anatomical study and anthropometric analysis of Korean, and new designed method of operation for Korean showed that our plastic surgery was breaking from Caucacian materials and methods, and being Koreanized. 7. To be read by more plastic surgeons, the JKSPRS should be written more accurately and significantly to make excellent journals, we, all members should try continously together.
