Abstract:
We describe the construction of a homemade laparoscope that undergraduate and medical students can use to learn abdominal gross anatomy from a different perspective. Students can also explore basic concepts in the laparoscopic procedure. This reliable and low-cost instrument can reduce the learning gap in low-resource universities.
