Development of a surgical oncology training curriculum for accreditation

摘要

Abstract In 2011, the American Board of Surgery announced a new specialty board certification for Complex General Surgical Oncology. The development of a 2‐year fellowship training curriculum was based on the core values of multidisciplinary care, surgical management of oncologic disease, education in basic research and clinical trial design, community outreach, patient counseling, and leadership in oncology. This article highlights the elements necessary for developing a fellowship training program in the context of these core values.
