Abstract

[This chapter focuses on training pathways for cardiothoracic surgery and the pros and cons of traditional pathways, where trainees enter the specialty after completing general surgery residency, and integrated tracks where students match directly into cardiothoracic surgery out of medical school. We will examine why one pathway might be best for you as an individual, but want to emphasize that both pathways lead to successful training and a fruitful career and there is not one ‘best’ way to pursue cardiothoracic surgery.]
