Arch Surg. 1999;134:438-444.

This article will provide a brief background on Argentina and then summarize the country's medical and surgical history, undergraduate and postgraduate training programs, residency programs, surgical associations, research, and the Argentinean Journal of Surgery (Revista Argentina de Cirugía). Surgery in Argentina is at the same level as that of most developed countries although transplantation, traumatology, and laparoscopic surgery have been emphasized.

From the Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires, Servicio de Cirugía, Gascón 450, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
