Why the study?
Little was known about the exposure of paediatric surgery trainees to minimally invasive surgery procedures in Europe.
European paediatric surgery trainees have low exposure to many minimally invasive procedures, though centralization of paediatric surgical care is associated with higher procedure volumes and better training satisfaction.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
MIS integration into pediatric practice warrants cautious expansion; leaves open need for standardized training and long-term outcome data.
Markel et al. (2023) studied this question.
