Multidisciplinary training in the future of surgical education

Will I actually be ready to face my first surgical on call night? It is the question that haunts every young specialist when, once he has completed his surgical training, he is alone, often by night to face the unpredictable. It is a question of ethical and intellectual honesty to understand that learning curve is something quite different from being transformed from a surgeon by day into a superhero by night. The training gap in Italy and at the same time the typology of patients (obesity, age, gunshot wounds, and stab wounds) who come to our Emergency Departments have exasperated the need to acquire specific skills among Surgeons. KEY WORDS: Cadaver lab, Emergency surgery, Training.
