Sialendoscopy Training

http://ift.tt/2pWFvtG

Introduction
Several surgical training simulators have been created for residents and young surgeons to gain experience with surgical procedures. Laboratory training is fundamental for acquiring familiarity with the techniques of surgery and skill in handing instruments.
Objective
The aim of this study is to present a novel simulator for training sialendoscopy.
Method
This realistic simulator was built with a synthetic thermo-retractile, thermosensible rubber which, when combined with different polymers, producesmore than 30 different formulas. These formulas present textures, consistencies, and mechanical resistance are similar to many human tissues.
Results
The authors present a training model to practice sialendoscopy. All aspects of the procedure are simulated: month opening, dilatation of papillae, insert of the scope, visualization of stones, extraction of these stones with grasping or baskets, and finally, stone fragmentation with holmium laser.
Conclusion
This anatomical model for sialendoscopy training should be considerably useful to abbreviate the learning curve during the qualification of young surgeons while minimizing the consequences of technical errors.
