Abstract: | BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Gender inequality in medicine remains an issue. Despite the increasing proportion of female physicians, women still appear underrepresented in interventional pulmonology (IP) careers. To date, no data are available on the gender distribution in IP. - METHOD: An online survey was sent to pulmonary physicians internationally between July and December 2022. The survey included questions on gender diversity in the pulmonology departments, such as the proportion of male, female, and gender diverse physicians performing bronchoscopy, career progression, and social life. - RESULTS: Responses from 92 physicians (mean age 45 ± 10 years) from 47 hospitals across 17 countries were analysed, of whom 52% were women. Overall, 79% of the respondents were pulmonologists and 83% perform bronchoscopy. Although men continue to dominate bronchoscopy (65 vs. 43%) and are more likely to be involved in research (89 vs. 77%), the observed difference is statistically not significant (p = 0.135 and p = 0.281). Leading positions are held by 60% of male respondents and 23% of female respondents (p = 0.002). Men are also more often reported to have academic awards. Discrimination based on gender was reported by 5.3% of all men and 26.8% of all women (p = 0.023). - CONCLUSIONS: Men and women are almost equally involved in IP, especially in female-led bronchoscopy units. However, leading positions and academic awards are still predominantly held by men. |
