Who Manages the Elbow? Fellowship Training and Practice Patterns in Orthopedic Surgery
Survey open until 4/6/2026
By: Ryan S Murray, MD
Elbow surgery encompasses a wide range of procedures that may be performed by various subspecialties within Orthopedic Surgery, including Sports Medicine, Shoulder and Elbow, and Hand Surgery. Despite the somewhat shared responsibility for managing elbow pathology, there is limited understanding of how surgical care for the elbow is distributed across these subspecialties. This study aims to better characterize current practice patterns and define the distribution of elbow surgery among the orthopedic subspecialties. We will survey members from the ASSH and ASES in addition to AANA in order to capture these various subspecialities.
