CORRECTION: New Certification for Complex Surgical Oncology


Elsevier Global Medical News

A story titled “New Certification for Complex Surgical Oncology,” published January 19, 2012, misidentified the organization that approved the subspecialty certification in complex general surgical oncology. The American Board of Medical Specialties approved the certification program. The program’s training requirements have not yet been approved by the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). The role of the ACGME in administering program examinations was misstated; the American Board of Surgery will administer these exams.
