Descrição
Discussion on curriculum vitae is a highly valorized parameter in the final exam to obtain the degree of medical specialist in Portugal. However, the lack of guidelines for making up a curriculum causes difficulties for everyone involved: residents, juries and institutions which govern the equity of the process. This paper presents guidelines for a curriculum which can be applied to any surgical speciality. The proposal is based on the regulations which govern post-graduate medical training. A broad debate on this issue is also suggested in this article.
