Surgical simulators are vital for training in minimally invasive procedures like thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy. This review examines available simulation models for head and neck endocrine surgery, including newer remote-access techniques.

Area of Science:

  • Endocrine Surgery
  • Surgical Simulation
  • Medical Education

Background:

  • Simulations are crucial for surgical training, especially in robotic and minimally invasive procedures.
  • Thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy are common endocrine surgeries with limited available training simulators.
  • Remote-access thyroidectomy techniques are gaining popularity, increasing the need for specialized simulators.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review existing literature on simulation models for head and neck endocrine surgery.
  • To identify available training simulators for both conventional and remote-access thyroidectomy techniques.

Main Methods:

  • Literature search of scientific databases for studies on surgical simulation in head and neck endocrine surgery.
  • Analysis of available simulation models, including virtual reality and physical simulators.

  • Review of training applications for conventional transcervical and remote-access thyroidectomy.

    • Main Results:

    • Limited studies focus on simulators for thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy.
    • A growing number of simulators are emerging for robotic and minimally invasive procedures.
    • Simulators show potential for enhancing trainee education and safe implementation of remote-access techniques.

    Conclusions:

    • There is a need for more research and development of simulation tools for head and neck endocrine surgery.
    • Simulators can significantly benefit the training and adoption of advanced thyroidectomy techniques.
    • Further investigation into simulator efficacy and accessibility is warranted.
