A post-ileal appendix can be harder to visualise during surgery, this anatomical variant replicates an appendix located behind the terminal ileum instead of hanging freely in the pelvis.
One of a series of three models representing the different locations in which the vermiform appendix is to be found. Trainees will move on from the Surgical Dissection Pads to this progressive 3 stage appendices suite:
Normal represents 32% of locations
Post-ileal represents 1% of locations
Retrocecal represents 64% of locations
Vermiform Appendix pads are supplied individually. Easily attach the model to a retaining jig, or other laparoscopic equipment, to practice removal of the appendix and closure of a peptic ulcer using peritoneum and mesentry.
Overview
The variations available in the range of appendices (Normal and Retrocecal) provide increased levels of difficulty
Realism
Convincing fluid filled vessels, cecum contents and tissues encourage correct handling of tissue
