A novel canine model using the inferior vena cava simulates the human common bile duct, providing a practical training tool for choledochoscopy. This effective method enhances surgical skills before human application.

Area of Science:

  • Surgical Education
  • Medical Simulation
  • Gastrointestinal Surgery

Background:

  • Mastering specialized surgical techniques like choledochoscopy requires extensive practice.
  • Training for complex procedures necessitates realistic simulation models.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a canine model for teaching choledochoscopy.
  • To provide surgeons and residents with a practical training platform.

Main Methods:

  • A canine model was designed using a segment of the inferior vena cava.
  • The canine inferior vena cava segment mimics the anatomical and physical characteristics of the human common bile duct.

Main Results:

  • The model effectively simulates the human common bile duct for choledochoscopy practice.
