The development of undergraduate curricula in surgery: II. Generic surgery.
The present paper focuses upon the issues in curricular reform that have specific relevance for surgeons. A central theme is that, taking into account the dual diminution of general surgery and large central teaching hospitals, there is a need to have a clear vision of what should be included in surgical curricula and how we can adjust to new methods of teaching and learning.
