Quick answers

What is the impact factor of Current Surgery?
Current Surgery has no Journal Impact Factor — JIF is published only for journals in the Web of Science Core Collection (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI and ESCI) — and Scopus has not published a current CiteScore for it either. Treat any "impact factor" quoted for this journal elsewhere as unofficial.

Current Surgery is published by Elsevier B.V. Its ISSN is 0149-7944.
Is Current Surgery covered under ONOS in India?
Yes. It is part of the One Nation One Subscription (ONOS) national subscription, so readers at participating Indian institutions get its full text. ONOS does not cover its article processing charge.

No — it is not currently in the Web of Science core collections (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI or ESCI).
Is Current Surgery open access?
No — it is not registered as an open-access journal in DOAJ or Scopus.
Scopus coverage history
Scopus indexed Current Surgery for 27 years, between 1978 and 2006, with 2 years in that span missing. Coverage ended in 2006, 20 years ago, and Scopus now lists the title as inactive.
Is it still publishing? OpenAlex lists 1,492 works and 11,152 citations for the title. OpenAlex attributes papers to this title as late as 2013, 7 years after Scopus coverage ended in 2006. That may reflect a changed ISSN or merged records rather than continued publishing, so confirm the journal's current status directly before submitting.
