Residency perception survey among neurosurgery residents in lower-middle-income countries: grassroots evaluation of neurosurgery education.
CONCLUSIONS: It is prudent that concerned authorities in LMICs recognize and address the deficiencies perceived by neurosurgery residents in their training programs. A determined effort in this direction would be endorsed and assisted by a host of international neurosurgical societies when it is felt that domestic resources may not be adequate. Quality control and close scrutiny of training programs should ensure that the interests of neurosurgical trainees are best served. PMID: 32114547 [PubMed - in process]
