How do you train surgeons to repair a hernia that doesn’t exist?
Researchers are creating realistic hernias in cadaveric models to improve surgical training. generalsurgerynews.com/a/Nzg… #HerniaSurgery

Proud of this paper: the first of its kind to address management of ACUTE femoral hernias in the modern era.
There seems to be so much confusion about this. So if you’re an ACS surgeon or general surgeon, I hope this helps you!
Check out the treatment algorithm we provided in the article and let me know your thoughts and how you would improve it.

Despite progress, women surgeons still face deep-rooted barriers to leadership. Cultural expectations, caregiving burdens, and structural bias must be addressed—or risk losing hard-won gains.
