Mapping the Scientific Landscape of Arthroscopy Research in Nepal (2010–2025): A Scopus-Indexed Bibliometric Study
Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to provide a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of arthroscopy research from Nepal between 2010 and 2025, evaluating publication trends, citation impact, authorship and institutional patterns, and international collaborations. Arthroscopy has become an essential component of modern orthopedic surgery, offering minimally invasive management of joint pathologies, particularly in the knee and shoulder. While global literature on arthroscopy has expanded rapidly, the contribution of Nepal has not been systematically assessed. Methods: Data were retrieved from the Scopus database on September 5, 2025, using the query (TITLE-ABS-KEY [arthroscopy OR arthroscopic] AND AFFILCOUNTRY [nepal]) AND PUBYEAR >1999 AND PUBYEAR
