Abstract
My interest for surgery dates back to my fourth year in medical school at the Catholic University of Rome, when for the first time I have been called to attend a minor surgical procedure. Since then my passion and dedication to this exciting discipline have been steadily growing. Everything I have seen, learned, and done at the General Surgery Unit as a medical student leads me to the decision to be a surgeon. During the 6 years of my general surgery residency at the same institution, my interest grew from strength to strength as I gained competence rotating between surgical units at my hospital.
