Realistic two layer bowel simulation for learning and practicing anastomosis techniques.
Skills
- Tissue handling
- Single layer extra mucosal suturing
- Continuous suturing technique
- End-to-end extra mucosal anastomosis
- End-to-side anastomosis
- Stapling
- Two layers
- Realistic tissue response
- Non-biological material: no hygiene issues or problems
- Will withstand a fluid flush test to demonstrate integrity of the anastomosis
-
Dimensions:
- outside diameter: 20mm or 30mm
- length: 200mm (approx.)
