The study first examined the percentage of General Surgery clinical educators (clerkship/elective directors and attending physicians) that considered each anatomical region important to their specialty. Second, the study examined the rank assigned to each anatomical topic using an ordinal scale from 1 (not important) to 4 (essential).</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p>At the time of abstract submission, data had been collected from 40 General Surgery clinical educators at 14 medical schools. The percentage of General Surgery clinical educators that considered each anatomical region important to their specialty were (highest‐to‐lowest): Abdomen (100%), Pelvis &amp; Perineum (89.7%), Thorax (82.5%), Head &amp; Neck (71.8%), Upper Limb (61%), Lower Limb (59%), and Back (51.2%). Further data analysis has identified the highest ranked anatomical topics in each body region for the General Surgery clerkship/elective.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Discussion and Conclusion</jats:title><jats:p>This database provides detailed information regarding the most clinically relevant anatomical topics as identified by General Surgery clinical educators. This information can aid in focusing preclinical learning to best prepare medical students for success in their undergraduate and graduate clinical experiences.</jats:p></jats:sec>
