مستخلص: During the past decade, US orthopedic residency graduates have become increasingly subspecialized presumably for decreased patient complications; however, no study has examined this clinical utility for foot and ankle (F&A) surgeries among different fellowship subspecialties. Data from American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery 1999 to 2016 Part II Board Certification Examinations were used to assess patients treated by F&A fellowship-trained, trauma fellowship-trained, and all other fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeons performing ankle fracture repair. Adverse events were compared by surgical complexity and fellowship status. Factors independently associated with surgical complications were identified using a binary multivariate logistic regression. A total of 45,031 F&A cases met inclusion criteria. From 1999 to 2016, the percentage of F&A procedures performed by F&A fellowship surgeons steadily increased. Surgical complications were significantly different between fellowship trainings (F&A, 7.23%; trauma, 6.65%; and other, 7.84%). This difference became more pronounced with more complicated fracture pattern. On multivariate regression, F&A fellowship training was associated with significantly decreased likelihood of surgeon-reported complications (odds ratio, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.76-0.92; P <.001), as was trauma fellowship training (odds ratio, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.81-0.99; P =.035). Despite presumed increased complexity of cases treated by F&A fellowship-trained surgeons, these patients had significantly decreased risk of surgeon-reported surgical complications, thus highlighting the value of F&A fellowship training. In the absence of vital patient comorbidity data in the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery database, further research must examine specific patient comorbidities and case acuity and their influence on treatments and surgical complications between fellowship-trained and other orthopedic surgeons to further illuminate the value of subspecialty training.
