ABSTRACT
The presence of online learning resources has grown tremendously in recent years. They provide powerful and yet easily accessible means of learning and sharing knowledge. Online learning resources now encompass all aspects of medicine, and microsurgery is no exception. International Microsurgery Club is a closed, invitation-only group based on the Facebook social media platform. It was initiated on May 6, 2016, with the primary objectives of providing a convenient forum for discussing challenging cases, sharing valuable resources, and providing opportunities for research collaboration. The membership of International Microsurgery Club has grown to over 8700 at 2 years' existence, and continues to expand. International Microsurgery Club has become one of the largest online platforms for global microsurgeons. Here, the authors share their experience on how to establish a successful online platform for medical education.
