Purpose: Satisfaction should be prioritized to maximize the value of education for trainees. This study was conducted with professors, fellows, and surgical residents in the Department of general surgery (GS) to evaluate the importance of various educational modules to surgical residents.
Methods: A questionnaire was administered to professors (n = 28), fellows (n = 8), and surgical residents (n = 14), and the responses of the three groups were compared. Four different categories of educational curricula were considered: instructor-led training, clinical education, self-paced learning, and hands-on training.
Results: The majority of surgeons regarded attending scrubs as the most important educational module in the training of surgical residents. However, while professors identified assisting operators by participating in surgery as the most important, residents assessed the laparoscopic training module with animal models as the most beneficial.
Conclusions: The best educational training course for surgical residents was hands-on training, which would provide them with several opportunities to operate and perform surgical procedures themselves.

Background: Although magnification is an advantage of robotic liver resection (RLR) as it enables precise surgery, the direction of parenchymal dissection, the vascular anatomy, and the tumor location can sometimes be lost. Extended reality (XR) has advantages over other navigation systems in terms of spatial awareness, sharing, and simplicity, and it also has the potential to overcome some of the limitations of RLR. METHODS: In this video, we demonstrate innovative RLR with XR by three separate surgeons.

Introduction: Senior residents near the end of their training must be prepared to start an independent practice. To become board-certified they must pass an oral exam, the ABS Certifying Exam (ABSCE). Prior work has introduced the resident Individual Clinical Evaluations (rICE), a low-cost tool developed to assess residents' clinical judgment in level-appropriate clinical scenarios.
