Current Landscape of Urological Surgical Training: A Needs Assessment Survey in Japan
The current surgical training in urology in Hokkaido, Japan, largely depends on "on-the-job" training methods. About two-thirds of trainees consider open surgery to be undertrained. Our observations could be utilized to update the training curriculum in Japan.
