PGY3 Playbook Foot and Ankle

PGY3 is where operative judgment starts to matter more than operative exposure. The PGY3 Foot & Ankle Playbook works through approaches, fixation strategy, and the independent planning that separates a resident who can execute from one who still needs to be walked through it.

What's inside

• Surgical approaches to the ankle, and the neurovascular anatomy you cannot get wrong
• Plate and screw placement — the reasoning, not just the steps
• Reduction strategy for ankle fractures and complex ankle trauma
• Preparation standards for more complex trauma cases
• A PGY3 self-assessment scored against the Trust Score framework

Who it's for

PGY3 residents on foot and ankle who want to arrive at each case with a plan rather than waiting to be given one.

Where it fits

Year three of a five-year pathway. Pair with The Strasser Standard, or take the complete set.
