Wound healing, though probably the most critical aspect of essential medical and surgical care, has been neglected for a long time. With the tremendous surge over the last two decades in basic research and in new techniques, wound healing is emerging more and more as a well-defined medical entity transcending existing specialties and subdivisions. Specialists working on the same subject must be known by a common name. There is a need to fill the gap in our current medical nomenclature in order to define all those interested in this subject. With etymologic, semantic and botanical arguments, Vulnerology seems to be an appropriate neologism. It will unite in the same group people who share a common interest and way of thinking to promote the concept of wound healing.
伤口愈合，尽管可能是基础医疗和外科护理中最关键的方面，但长期以来一直被忽视。随着过去二十年基础研究和新技术的巨大发展，伤口愈合越来越成为一个超越现有专业和细分领域的明确医学实体。从事同一主题研究的专家必须有一个共同的名称。有必要填补我们当前医学术语中的空白，以便界定所有对该主题感兴趣的人。从词源、语义和植物学角度来看，创伤学似乎是一个合适的新词。它将把有共同兴趣和思维方式的人聚集在一起，以推广伤口愈合的概念。
