The field of endourology, which encompasses genitourinary endoscopy and percutaneous, laparoscopic, and robotic surgery, has advanced rapidly over the past quarter century, causing endourology to be considered a subspecialty of urology. The Endourological Society, which is recognized by the American Urological Association, offers numerous clinical and research fellowship opportunities throughout the world. The decision to seek postresidency fellowship training in endourology is complex as is the process of seeking subsequent employment. We offer guidance on the decision-making process to obtain fellowship training as well as on early steps into subsequent academic or private practice settings.
腔内泌尿外科领域涵盖了泌尿生殖系统内镜检查以及经皮、腹腔镜和机器人手术,在过去四分之一个世纪里发展迅速,使得腔内泌尿外科被视为泌尿外科的一个亚专业。美国泌尿外科协会认可的腔内泌尿外科协会在全球提供众多临床和研究奖学金机会。决定寻求腔内泌尿外科住院后奖学金培训的过程很复杂,后续求职过程也是如此。我们就获得奖学金培训的决策过程以及进入后续学术或私人执业环境的早期步骤提供指导。
