Abstract

Background: There is lower female representation within academic medicine. We aimed to investigate female authorship (FA) and female-held chair or program director (PD) positions within head and neck oncology (HNO).

Methods: Articles authored by females about microvascular and reconstructive surgery (MRS) and transoral robotic surgery (TORS) were identified. A sub-analysis was performed by investigating the gender of HNO fellows, PDs, and chairpersons. These were collected, and FA reported.

Results: There were 1227 publications, 656 on MRS and 567 on TORS. Females authored 299 (24%) publications, 139 (23%) about MRS and 160 (30%) about TORS. There was no significant increase in FA or fellowship trends over time (p > 0.05). In our sub-analysis, we identified four HNO chairwomen (3%), and eight (6%) female HNO PDs. HNO chairwomen authored an average of 97 publications, PDs authored 37.

Conclusion: FA in MRS and TORS remained stable between 2001 and 2022. Although few HNO females hold program chair or PD positions they perform quality research and serve as senior authors on a large proportion of publications.

头颈外科肿瘤学出版物中的女性代表。

背景：在学术医学中，女性的比例较低。我们的目的是调查女性作者（FA）和女性担任头颈部肿瘤学（HNO）的主席或项目主任（PD）职位。方法：对女性撰写的有关微血管重建手术（MRS）和经口机器人手术（TORS）的文章进行分析。通过调查HNO研究员、pd和主席的性别进行了子分析。收集并报道FA。结果：共发表文献1227篇，其中MRS 656篇，TORS 567篇。女性发表论文299篇（24%），MRS发表论文139篇（23%），tor发表论文160篇（30%）。随着时间的推移，FA或fellowship趋势没有显著增加（p < 0.05）。在我们的子分析中，我们确定了4名HNO女主席（3%）和8名女性HNO pd（6%）。HNO的女主席平均发表了97篇论文，pd发表了37篇。结论：2001 - 2022年MRS和tor的FA保持稳定。尽管很少有HNO女性担任项目主席或PD职位，但她们从事高质量的研究，并在很大一部分出版物中担任高级作者。
