The purpose of this study was to verify whether a spine robotic system was useful for junior surgeons....
Twenty-seven patients underwent posterior spinal fusion with open surgery using a spine robotic system (Mazor X Stealth Edition, Medtronic Inc., Dublin, Ireland) from April to August 2021. Pedicle scr...
In the expert surgeon group, the GR grades were Grade A for 79 screws (90.8%), Grade B for 6 (6.9%), Grade C for 2 (2.3%), and 0 (0%) for Grades D and E. I In the junior surgeon group, the GR grades w...
There were no significant differences in the deviation rate and the insertion time of robotic-assisted pedicle screw placement between expert surgeons and junior surgeons who were training to acquire ...
Surgeon-specific outcome monitoring has become increasingly prevalent over the last 3 decades. The New Zealand Orthopaedic Association monitors individual surgeon performance through 2 mechanisms: art...
The survey consisted of 9 questions on surgeon-specific outcome reporting, using a five-point Likert scale, and 5 demographic questions. It was distributed to all current hip and knee arthroplasty sur...
Respondents agreed that monitoring arthroplasty outcomes is important and that revision rates are an acceptable measure of performance. Reporting risk-adjusted revision rates and more recent timeframe...
The findings of this survey support the use of revision rates to confidentially monitor surgeon-level arthroplasty outcomes and suggest that concurrent use of patient-reported outcome measures would b...
This study aimed to assess the combined impact of surgeon specialization and surgeon volume on both short- and long-term outcomes in patients underwent curative gastrectomy for gastric cancer....
Patients with cStage1-3 gastric adenocarcinoma who underwent curative-intent surgery between January 2010 and December 2020 were evaluated. The impact of surgeon specialization and surgeon volume on c...
Total of 537 patients operated by twelve surgeons were included in the analysis. For all cohort, the 30d-, in-hospital and 90d-mortality were 3.5%, 3%, and 6.3%, respectively. High surgeon volume alon...
The primary factor influencing short-term outcomes for patients who underwent gastric cancer surgery was found to be surgeon volume, while specialization provided a limited additional value. However, ...
We aimed to evaluate the effects of R0 and R1 resections after pancreatic surgery....
Data of 130 patients were evaluated. Re-resection was performed in patients who were found to have R1 resection after frozen section (FS). Overall survival (OS), disease free survival (DFS) among pati...
Tumor diameter, differentiation, age and complications were found to negatively affect OS. It was observed that DFS increased (p:0.02) and local recurrence rates decreased (p:0.037) in group 2 compare...
R0 resection obtained by surgical margin resection of the neck in pancreatic head adenocarcinomas decreases local recurrence and increases the duration of DFS. However, it has no effect on preventing ...
Previous publications have assessed the diversity among medical students, residents, faculty, and department leaders in surgery and medicine overall. We aim to evaluate the diversity among medical sch...
151 allopathic medical schools were included. Data regarding demographics, education, training, and previous leadership position were collected from institutional websites, online resources, and July ...
21.9% (n = 33) of all medical school deans were surgeons. 21.2% (n = 7) were women, which was not significantly different from non-surgeons (22%,...
The demographic diversity of surgeon and non-surgeon US medical school deans is not significantly different. The deficiencies in leadership diversity in medicine persists among medical school deans. T...
The delivery of pediatric surgical care for acute appendicitis involves general surgeons (GS) and pediatric surgeons (PS), but the differences in clinical practice are primarily undescribed. We examin...

Over the study period, 21,049 patients had appendicitis or other diseases of the appendix, and 15,230 (72.4%) underwent appendectomy. Patients who were operated on by PS were younger (10 y, interquart...
The total charge for operations for appendiceal disease is significantly higher for PS compared to GS. Pediatric surgeons had increased surgical charges compared to GS but decreased radiology charges....
Three tracks prepare Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary (HPB) surgeons: HPB, surgical oncology, and transplant fellowships. This study explored how surgical leaders thought about HPB surgery and evaluated poten...
This descriptive qualitative study utilized interviews of healthcare leaders whose responsibilities included hiring HPB surgeons. We coded inductively then used thematic network analysis to organize t...
Primary themes were: (1) What defines an HPB surgical practice?, (2) How do they assess candidates for HPB positions?, and (3) How will HPB practices continue to evolve? Leaders assessed applicants' t...
Surgical societies should focus on facilitating networking, promoting transparency, sharing quality data, providing evidence of technical skills and teamwork, mentorship, and providing guidance to gen...
Surgical specialties have a recruitment problem. A magnification of the problem is often seen in the "feminization" of medicine but the causes are multifactorial. Female physicians of the association ...
An anonymized online survey was conducted internally within the association ("Die Chirurginnen e. V.") in October 2022. The survey contained a total of 57 questions and was divided into 7 sections (de...
A total of 358 female surgeons participated in the survey. This represented a response rate of 25.5% of association members (as of October 2022: n = 1406). The mean age was 39.25 years (±8.06 years; r...
Motivated and dedicated surgeons are needed to counteract the already existing and increasingly severe shortage of manpower. In recent decades, the proportion of female students and physicians has bee...
Health care facilities represent a significant source of pollution, contributing to the growing problems associated with global warming. The resulting climate change impacts our health through worseni...
We outline here the not only the role of the surgeon in contributing to climate change, but also ways in which to minimize one's carbon footprint....
Surgeons are leaders within healthcare systems. Adopting environmentally conscious practices can reduce solid waste, energy usage, and carbon emissions. Practices outside of the clinical setting can a...
Academic surgery combines clinical practice with an element of leadership, at all levels. Our recognition and action to reduce wasteful practices can help leave a better earth for generations to come....
To examine the relationship between surgeon volume and operative morbidity and mortality for laryngectomy....
The Nationwide Inpatient Sample was used to identify 45,156 patients who underwent laryngectomy procedures for laryngeal or hypopharyngeal cancer between 2001 and 2011. Hospital and surgeon laryngecto...
Relationships between hospital and surgeon volume and mortality, surgical complications, and acute medical complications were examined using multivariable regression....
Higher-volume surgeons were more likely to operate at large, teaching, nonprofit hospitals and were more likely to treat patients who were white, had private insurance, hypopharyngeal cancer, low como...
There is a strong volume-outcome relationship for laryngectomy, with reduced mortality and morbidity associated with higher surgeon and higher hospital volumes. Observed associations between hospital ...
