Description: This course is 4 weeks long. The overall educational goal is to provide the medical student with an introductory experience in abdominal organ transplantation surgery, including preoperative evaluation, exposure to surgical procedures (including organ procurement and transplantation), and involvement in postoperative management. Students will develop skills in focused history and physical examination, formulation of relevant differential diagnoses, and increase their familiarity with surgical anatomy and physiology relevant to liver, kidney, and pancreas transplantation. Students will also begin to understand the complex multidisciplinary care required for transplant patients, including the role of immunosuppression and long-term graft management.
