The purpose of this report is to demonstrate robotic cryoablation of an atrial myxoma stalk as a method to prevent recurrence and preserve atrial tissue. A 38-year-old female patient was taken to the operating room, and an atrial myxoma abutting the left inferior pulmonary vein was resected robotically. This was followed by cryoablation of the tumor stalk instead of a full-thickness resection to prevent an extensive reconstruction.

Objective: Few general surgery residencies offer rural rotations. We aim to evaluate the contribution of our institution's rural rotation to meeting the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) minimum case requirements for graduation, and residents' perceptions of the educational value of this rotation.

Design: ACGME case log data were obtained from categorical general surgery residents who had completed at least 1 month-long rural surgery rotation and 1 month-long general surgery rotation at our academic medical center within the same clinical year.
