Never in history has the fabric of African neurosurgery been challenged as it is today with the advent of the novel coronavirus identified in 2019 (COVID-19). Even the most robust and resilient neurosurgical educational systems in the continent have been brought to their knees with neurosurgical trainees and young neurosurgeons bearing the brunt. In the face of this new reality, and in order to limit the impact of the current COVID-19 pandemic, multiple programs have implemented physical distancing to reduce in-person interactions. In some cases, residents have been asked to stay home at least until they are instructed otherwise. This unfortunate event presents an innovative opportunity for neurosurgical education in Africa. Herein, we detail the framework of an online neurosurgical education initiative to advance the education of African residents and young neurosurgeons during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
有史以来，非洲神经外科学的结构从未像今天这样受到挑战，因为 2019 年发现了新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）。即使是非洲最强大和最有弹性的神经外科学教育系统也因神经外科受训者和年轻神经外科医生首当其冲而陷入困境。面对这一新现实，并为了限制当前 COVID-19 大流行的影响，多个项目已实施身体距离以减少面对面的互动。在某些情况下，已要求住院医师至少在家中待命，直到另行通知。这一不幸事件为非洲的神经外科学教育提供了一个创新的机会。在此，我们详细介绍了一项在线神经外科学教育计划的框架，以在 COVID-19 大流行期间和之后推进非洲住院医师和年轻神经外科医生的教育。
