Challenges for Women in Hand Surgery: Our Perspective.
Journal of Hand and Microsurgery 2023 September
Over recent decades, the prevalence of women in surgical subspecialties has increased. There has been a significant rise in the percentage of women entering integrated plastic surgery programs and an increase, albeit smaller, in women entering orthopedic surgery training programs.
