ABSTRACT
The attainment of microsurgical competency is an important milestone for plastic surgery trainees. Technical skill and a practiced disposition are required to successfully perform microsurgical procedures. Microsurgical skills curricula may foster both proficiency with technical movements and facilitate performance with minimal cognitive burden while using the operating microscope. The microsurgical skills curriculum presented in this article focuses on three fundamental principles intrinsic muscle strength, accuracy and precision of movement, and supervised practice. Progressive operative entrustment of trainees is earned through successful completion of deliberate microsurgical exercises rather than timed anastomosis trials. The overarching goal of this curriculum is to develop unconscious competence in microsurgery.
