Hand Surgery
Clinical, Academic
The
Division
of
Plastic
and
Reconstructive
Surgery
offers
a
one-year
fellowship
in
hand,
peripheral
nerve,
and
microsurgery.
The
Hand,
Nerve
and
Microsurgery
Fellowship
is
sponsored
by
the
Washington
University/Barnes-Jewish
Hospital/Saint
Louis
Children’s
Hospital
Graduate
Medical
Education
Consortium
and
is
fully
accredited
by
the
Accreditation
Council
for
Graduate
Medical
Education
(ACGME).
The
fellowship
includes
training
in
all
aspects
of
hand
surgery
from
the
distal
forearm
to
the
fingertip,
and
from
the
infant
to
aged
adult.
The
trauma
volume
is
high
at
this
large
tertiary
hospital,
providing
exposure
and
competence
in
the
treatment
of
distal
radius
fractures,
carpal
pathology
and
microsurgery
for
soft
tissue
coverage.
The
fellowship
also
has
a
strong
brachial
plexus
and
peripheral
nerve
component.
Led
by
Susan
Mackinnon,
MD,
this
program
provides
a
unique
experience
for
our
fellows
to
participate
in
both
basic
science
and
clinical
peripheral
nerve
studies.
In
order
to
broaden
the
congenital
hand
experience,
we
have
joined
forces
with
Shriners
Hospital
in
Philadelphia.
Our
fellows
have
a
required
one-month
congenital
hand
rotation
with
Scott
Kozin,
MD
and
Dan
Zlotolow,
MD.
We
are
excited
about
this
collaboration
and
know
that
it
will
continue
to
positively
impact
the
experience
of
our
fellows.
During
their
year
in
training,
the
fellows
will
be
exposed
to
a
variety
of
hand,
nerve
and
upper
extremity
pathology.
Our
goal
is
to
provide
a
comprehensive
learning
environment
to
gain
confidence,
competence
and
technical
proficiency
to
begin
a
long-lasting
career
in
hand
surgery.
