摘要
OBJECTIVE: Colorectal surgery is a core component of general surgery. The volume of colorectal surgery per -formed by general surgery residents throughout training has not been studied. This study aims to analyze trends observed in colorectal-specific case numbers logged by general surgery residents over 16 years.& nbsp;DESIGN: Case number data for general surgery residents was extracted from the publicly available, annually published Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Edu-cation (ACGME) database from 2003 to 2019. Cases were categorized as open or laparoscopic colectomy/ proctectomy, colectomy with ileoanal pull-thru, abdomino-perineal resection (APR), transanal rectal tumor excision (TRE), anorectal procedure, colonoscopy, and total colorectal cases. The average case numbers per category was calculated for each year. Linear regression analyzed trends in case categories for all residents and those logged as surgeon chief and junior residents.& nbsp;SETTING: ACGME accredited general surgery residency programs.& nbsp;PARTICIPANTS: Not applicable.& nbsp;RESULTS: General surgery residents reported increased numbers of all, chief, and junior resident colorectal cases over the study period (124.5-173.7 cases/yr; 38.4-53.0 cases/yr; 86.4-120.6 cases/yr, all p = 0.00). Average cases for all, chief, and junior residents have increased for laparoscopic colectomy/proctectomy (4.6-26.4 cases/year; 2.7-12.9 cases/year; 2.0-13.5 cases/year, all p = 0.00), anorectal surgeries (26.7-37.7 cases/year; 5.4-9.9 cases/ year; 21.3-27.8 cases/year, all p = 0.00), and colonoscopies (35.9-70.6 cases/year, p = 0.00; 6.6-14.1 cases/year, p = 0.01; 29.4-56.5 cases/year, p = 0.00). Average cases for all, chief, and junior residents have decreased for open colectomy/proctectomy (52.0-34.9 cases/year; 21.2-14.3 cases/year; 30.9-20.6 cases/year, all p = 0.00), APR (3.3-2.7 cases/year, p = 0.00; 1.8-1.3 cases/year, p = 0.00; 1.5-1.4 cases/year, p = 0.02), TRE (1.9-1.1 cases/year; 0.7-0.4 cases/year; 1.2-0.6 cases/year, all p = 0.00). Ileoanal pull-thru did not demonstrate a linear trend.& nbsp;CONCLUSIONS: The increase in exposure to colecto-mies/proctectomies, anorectal procedures and colonos-copies is encouraging, as these common colorectal operations will be encountered in general surgery prac-tice. The observed low case numbers for TRE, APR, and ileoanal pull-thru suggest a need for specialized training. (J Surg Ed 79:632-642.& nbsp;(C)& nbsp;2021 Association of Program Directors in Surgery.
