PURPOSE: The academic success of ophthalmology fellows may be significantly impacted by their research engagement. Evaluating the research activity of fellows by subspecialty may provide insight into trends useful for prospective applicants. The objective of this study was to assess the research activity of ophthalmology fellows in the year 2023. METHODS: Ophthalmology fellowship programs were compiled using the Association of University Professors of Ophthalmology and the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery websites...

OBJECTIVE: To create a society position statement on common adjunct penile prosthesis (PP) procedures. While the Medicare Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) code book lists descriptions of procedures, it is very brief and lacks detail in the small subspecialty of prosthetic urology. At educational/research meetings, wide variation was found in how experts in prosthetic urology code the same procedures, and need for a standardized format in billing common ancillary surgery was voiced...

The Pediatric Cardiac Anesthesia (PCA) fellowship is a demanding training program in Europe and the United States. Successful completion of the program requires years of training in anesthesiology, a thorough understanding of cardiovascular anatomy and physiology, and extensive experience in the perioperative management of neonates and children with heart disease. In the context of the first candidate to successfully complete the PCA program in Europe, this article presents excerpts from the design and structure of the European PCA program...

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Vaginal inserts and continence devices are recommended as a conservative treatment option for the management of stress urinary incontinence (SUI); however, practice patterns for recommendation and use of such devices are currently unknown. Our objectives were to better understand counseling patterns relating to over-the-counter (OTC) continence devices, to assess perceived barriers to recommending these devices, and to estimate clinician familiarity with three such devices currently available in the USA...

BACKGROUND: Optimal management of displaced intraarticular calcaneal fractures remains controversial. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to compare the clinical and radiologic outcomes of minimally invasive surgery vs nonoperative treatment in displaced intraarticular calcaneal fracture up to 2 years. METHODS: All displaced intraarticular calcaneal fractures between August 2014 and January 2019 that presented to a level 1 trauma center were considered for inclusion...

BACKGROUND: The American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) Fellowship Certificate was created to ensure satisfactory training and requires a minimum number of anastomotic cases. With laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy becoming the most common bariatric procedure in the United States, this may present a challenge for fellows to obtain adequate numbers for ASMBS certification. OBJECTIVES: To investigate bariatric fellowship trends from 2012 to 2019, the types, numbers, and approaches of surgical procedures performed by fellows were examined...

OBJECTIVES: Transgender individuals face significant health disparities including deficiencies in physician education, knowledge, and comfort with transgender health care. As the prevalence of the transgender population increases more individuals may seek gender-affirming surgery. Herein, we present a survey study which presents data on (1) the current practice patterns, (2) the familiarity with, (3) the perception of, and (4) the future educational goals of transgender health care among laryngologists in the United States...

INTRODUCTION: While competency-based training is at the forefront of educational innovation in General Surgery, Pediatric Surgery training programs should not wait for downstream changes. There is currently no consensus on what it means for a pediatric surgery fellow to be "practice-ready". In this study, we aimed to provide a framework for better defining competency and practice readiness in a way that can support the Milestones system and allow for improved assessment of pediatric surgery fellows...

BACKGROUND: The Canadian Association of Paediatric Surgeons launched a 10-year prospective assessment of the Canadian pediatric surgery workforce and training environment, beginning in 2013. The results of the first 5 years (2013-2017) were previously published. Here, we present the results of the last 5 years (2018-2022), and the cumulative results of the past decade. METHODS: With IRB approval, a web-based survey was sent to all pediatric surgery division chiefs in Canada each year (2013-2022)...

INTRODUCTION: Hypospadias repair is regarded as a technically demanding, complex procedure, with variable outcomes. Therefore, it tends to be performed by consultants, with limited trainee involvement. We aimed to study the clinical outcomes of supervised registrars performing proximal and distal hypospadias repairs, compared to their consultant mentors. METHODS: We undertook a retrospective review of all primary hypospadias repairs performed between April 2013-April 2022 at our tertiary paediatric urology centre...

INTRODUCTION: Postoperative imaging for deceased donor renal transplants is often delayed, as these surgeries occur after-hours These delays can be critical in identifying immediate complications. To our knowledge, there are no formal training programs for point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in this setting; therefore, we aimed to develop and evaluate a feasible and practical POCUS curriculum for the assessment of a renal transplant graft. METHODS: Urology and nephrology transplant physicians completed a three-hour online course, followed by a five-hour hands-on seminar for sonographic scanning...

BACKGROUND: In the last couple decades, there has been a shift in use of endovascular procedures in vascular surgery. We aim to examine the impact of this endovascular shift on vascular trainees, determine whether surgical experiences of trainees in the integrated residency and fellowship program changed over time, and identify differences between the two training paradigms. METHODS: Data was extracted from the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education National Data Case Logs for the vascular surgery fellowship (1999-2021) and integrated residency (2012-2021) programs...

BACKGROUND: In today's digital age, patients increasingly rely on online search engines for medical information. The integration of large language models such as GPT-4 into search engines such as Bing raises concerns over the potential transmission of misinformation when patients search for information online regarding spine surgery. METHODS: SearchResponse.io, a database that archives People Also Ask (PAA) data from Google, was utilized to determine the most popular patient questions regarding 4 specific spine surgery topics: anterior cervical discectomy and fusion, lumbar fusion, laminectomy, and spinal deformity...
