description PURPOSE: Investigate whether number of logged Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) surgical cases correlates with likelihood of Virginia Commonwealth University Health System (VCUHS) ophthalmology residents being selected as the chief resident. DESIGN: Retrospective study. PARTICIPANTS: VCUHS ophthalmology residents from 2006 to 2016. METHODS: Analyze association between chief resident selection and logged cases. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Review number of archived logged ACGME surgical cases of all residents between the years 2006 and 2017. Review chief resident selected each year 2006-2016. RESULTS: Our analysis correctly predicted the chief resident in 2 of the 10 years analyzed. CONCLUSION: Those residents performing the most surgical procedures in each respective class were not more likely to be selected as chief resident.
