Background:

E-learning is increasingly adopted in medical education, overcoming traditional barriers.
This review focuses on the application and effectiveness of e-learning within plastic surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

To critically evaluate existing research on e-learning in plastic surgery.
To assess the impact and user experience of digital learning tools in this specialty.

Main Methods:

A systematic review of literature was performed using PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and Embase.
Studies published in English after 1995 were included, excluding non-peer-reviewed or simulation-focused articles.

Main Results:

23 articles were reviewed, covering various plastic surgery subspecialties.
High user satisfaction and knowledge gains were reported, with benefits more pronounced in novice learners.
E-learning utilization and interest among plastic surgeons and trainees are growing.

Conclusions:

E-learning in plastic surgery demonstrates high user satisfaction and effective knowledge acquisition, often matching traditional methods.
Digital learning offers significant potential in plastic surgery education, particularly in contexts requiring remote learning.
Further research should explore learner preferences and optimal integration of e-learning with other educational strategies.
