Jinekolojik onkoloji yandal eğitim süreci ve temel eksiklikleri, mini anket

ÖZET

Amaç:Jinekolojik onkoloji cerrahisi yandal eğitim sürecinde en sık hangi konularda eksiklik olduğunu tespit etmek.

Materyal ve metod:Dokuz farklı şehirden ve 13 farklı merkezden toplam 36 jinekolojik onkoloji cerrahisi yandal asistanının (jinekolojik onkoloji yandal asistanlarının %52.1’i) katıldığı 10 soruluk mini anket sonuçları sıklık oranlarına göre değerlendirilmiştir.

Bulgular:Minimal invaziv jinekolojik onkoloji prosedürlerin yeterince yapılmaması (%61.1) tespit edilmiş olan en sık eksikliktir.

Sonuç:Minimal invaziv cerrahi eğitimi jinekolojik onkoloji cerrahisi yandal eğitim sürecinde temel cerrahi eğitimin bir parçası olarak yer almalıdır.

Anahtar kelimeler:jinekolojik onkoloji, yandal, eğitim, minimal invaziv, laparoskopi

ABSTRACT

Aim: To identify the most common deficiencies that were noticed during gynecologic oncology fellowship education.

Materials and methods: Totally 36 gynecologic oncology fellows (52.1% of gynecologic oncology fellows) from nine different cities and 13 different clinics answered a total of 10 questions and the results were categorized due to frequencies.

Results: Lack of performing minimally invasive procedures (61.1%) was the most common deficiency of gynecologic oncology fellowship education.

Conclusion: Minimally invasive surgery education must be a part of basic surgical education during gynecologic oncology fellowship period.

Key words:gynecologic oncology, fellowship, education, minimally invasive, laparoscopy
