I just had the patient I did my first surgery on as an attending come in to the office for a new problem, and it made me curious. To those of you who are in practice, what was your first case as an attending? Maybe even what were your first elective and non-elective cases?
My first case was a partial 5th ray resection plus a single-lobe flap closure. I did the partial ray resection first and left it open, then came back a few days later and closed the wound and did the single-lobed flap for a separate wound.
My first elective case was BL 5th hammertoes.
Yes, I know, very exciting What were your firsts?
