Orthopaedic Trauma Fellowships in South America

OrthoFellow currently lists 19 orthopaedic trauma pathways in South America at 19 institutions, across 4 countries. Counts reflect verified listings, not every programme that exists.

The largest South American destinations in this directory are Brazil (8), Chile (4), Colombia (4) and Argentina (3).

There is no single South American application system. Most fellowships are applied for directly with the host hospital, university or national orthopaedic society, and several are tied to national society accreditation. Check each country directory for its own route and language requirement.

Sometimes. Clinical work usually requires registration or revalidation of the specialist qualification in the host country and working Spanish or Portuguese, while observerships and research posts can be more flexible. Confirm the permitted role with each host.
