Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Abstract Pediatric minimally invasive surgery is a rapidly developing field with a steep learning curve for each new procedure that is developed and integrated into practice. The European consensus is that the training across the learning curve should not be on the patients. Simulation is a widely accepted methodology to shorten the learning curve. Training on animal models is an advanced form of simulation. This helps to reduce morbidity and the costs of patient care. This article describes our 3 years of experience in the development of animal models for training in pediatric minimally invasive surgery.
