The ability to deliver safe, timely, affordable, and high-quality cancer surgery depends on an adequate cadre of well-trained and competent cancer surgeons. It is well-known that wide variations and inequities exist in the educational platforms for training cancer surgeons on the global stage. The second Lancet Oncology Commission on Global Cancer Surgery Action on education and training is geared toward creating robust, sustainable, and affordable educational platforms for training cancer surgeons globally.
This study used the principles of implementation science taken from the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research to help develop the content and increase the likelihood of success in implementing the recommendations in this Action.
The Annals of Surgical Oncology series on the Second Lancet Oncology Commission on Global Cancer Surgery hopes to enhance the visibility of the eight critical actions within this important Commission to the primary stakeholders, the surgeons. Thie authors hope this Action on education and training will help to increase availability and modernize and develop contextually appropriate and resource-stratified educational platforms of appropriate length for training the next generation of competent cancer surgeons.
提供安全、及时、可负担且高质量的癌症手术的能力取决于有足够数量训练有素且胜任的癌症外科医生。众所周知，在全球范围内，培训癌症外科医生的教育平台存在很大差异和不公平现象。《柳叶刀肿瘤学》全球癌症手术教育与培训行动委员会的第二个委员会旨在为全球培训癌症外科医生创建强大、可持续且可负担的教育平台。
本研究采用了来自实施研究综合框架的实施科学原则，以帮助制定内容并提高实施本行动中各项建议的成功率。
《外科肿瘤学年鉴》关于《柳叶刀肿瘤学》全球癌症手术教育与培训行动委员会的系列文章希望提高该重要委员会内八项关键行动对于主要利益相关者即外科医生的可见性。作者们希望这一教育与培训行动将有助于增加可用性，并使教育平台现代化，开发适合不同背景且资源分层、长度合适的教育平台，以培训下一代胜任的癌症外科医生。
