Urology residents trained in laparoscopy are more likely to perform these procedures in their practice. However, many cite inadequate case volume and training needs as barriers to continued laparoscopic surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Urologic Surgery
  • Surgical Education

Background:

  • Laparoscopic training is common in urology residency programs.
  • The impact of residency training on urology practice patterns is not well understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the impact of urologic residency training in laparoscopy on subsequent practice patterns.
  • To identify factors influencing urologists' decision to perform laparoscopic procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Anonymous questionnaires were sent to urologists who completed residency between 1977-1999.
  • Evaluated practice demographics, laparoscopic experience during residency, and current practice.

Main Results:

  • Urologists with residency laparoscopic training were more likely to perform these procedures (69% vs. 34%).

  • Laparoscopic experience intensity during residency did not correlate with ongoing practice.
  • Barriers included need for more training and inadequate case volume.

    • Conclusions:

    • Residency training in laparoscopy increases the likelihood of performing these procedures.
    • Evolving practice patterns are expected as more urologists receive laparoscopic training.
