Abstract: Pregnancy and the Plastic Surgery Resident
نویسندگان
چکیده
DiScuSSion: The integrated pathway has seen significant growth and surpassed the independent pathway in number of residency positions. During the study period, females saw a significant representation trend increase in the integrated pathway, but not the independent pathway. However, the integrated pathway also saw a statistically significant decline in Black representation. Overall, the percentage of Blacks in graduating medical schools classes has increased and the decline in representation in plastic surgery integrated programs is concerning. Moreover, despite increased representation in surgery, it is unclear why more females are not pursuing the independent pathway. Further research is needed to explore the reasons for these specific abnormalities in racial and gender representation among plastic surgery trainees.
