摘要
BACKGROUND Purpose of this study is to assess awareness and perception of plastic surgery in preclinical undergraduate students.

Validated questionnaire was given to assess awareness, perception and spectrum of plastic surgery. RESULTS There is not much awareness and perception about plastic surgery in medical students.
