Orthopaedic Trauma Fellowship Directory

An orthopaedic trauma fellowship focuses on acute fracture care, polytrauma and reconstruction of injury sequelae. Pelvis and acetabulum fellowships may be dedicated tracks or rotations inside a wider trauma year. Confirm operative access, on-call duties and whether limb reconstruction or frames are core curriculum.

In the United States, ACGME-accredited orthopaedic trauma fellowships are one year and recruit through the OTA fellowship match on SF Match.

Outside the US, trauma fellowships run through major trauma centres and networks such as AO Trauma and the Orthopaedic Trauma Society, including short-term fellowships for international surgeons. Each OrthoFellow profile records the published eligibility, registration and visa requirements for that programme.

On OrthoFellow the countries with the most listed trauma, pelvis and acetabulum pathways are United States (90), Germany (40), United Kingdom (31), Australia (28), Canada (19). Counts are canonical pathways in the directory, not vacancies; confirm availability with each host.

This directory separates clinical fellowships, research fellowships and observerships. The unfiltered Trauma, Pelvis & Acetabulum page currently contains 341 canonical pathways; network host centres remain inside their parent pathway.

No. Clinical participation depends on the published role, registration, credentialing, supervision and host policy. Treat exposure as observational when the official source does not confirm operative participation.

Check the status, deadline and verification date on the OrthoFellow profile, then reopen the official programme source. A historical or recurring programme is not treated as actively recruiting without current evidence.
