Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Simulation
  • Vascular Interventions

Background:

  • Cadaveric models are essential for endovascular training.
  • Developing high-fidelity models requires meticulous preparation.
  • Standardized techniques are needed to ensure reproducibility.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a detailed preparation process for fresh frozen cadavers (FFCs).
  • To create versatile, high-fidelity cadaveric models for endovascular training.
  • To enhance the effectiveness of endovascular procedural training.

Main Methods:

  • Two FFCs were thawed and prepared over three days.
  • Vascular patency was maintained using a motorized pump and manual perfusion.
  • Vascular access was achieved via ultrasound-guided femoral, carotid, and radial/ulnar arteries.
  • Procedures simulated included pulmonary thrombectomy and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.

Main Results:

  • The cadaveric models successfully replicated complex endovascular scenarios.
  • High-quality visualization of major and distal arterial branches was achieved.
  • Realistic hemodynamics and vascular patency were maintained throughout simulations.

Conclusions:

  • Preparing FFCs is a promising method for developing versatile endovascular training models.
  • Sharing these preparation techniques facilitates replication by other institutions.
  • Optimized FFC models can become essential tools for training future endovascular specialists.
