Simulated dissectable tissue

Abstract

26922777_1 Abstract A simulated tissue structure for surgical training is provided. The simulated tissue structure includes a first layer made of silicone and a second layer made of silicone interconnected by a third layer made of polyester fiber that is embedded in part in the first layer and in part in the second layer to create a mechanical linkage between the first layer and the second layer. Part of the third layer that is adjacent to the first layer and part of the third layer that is adjacent to the second layer includes fiber strands coated in silicone. An inclusion that mimics an anatomical structure is located between the first layer and the second layer. The third layer of polyester fibers provides a realistic dissection plane for the practice of the surgical excision of the inclusion. Abstract strands coated in silicone. An inclusion that mimics an anatomical structure is the inclusion. 20 26 23 40 26 16 S ep 2 02 6 2 0 2 6 2 3 4 0 2 6 1 6 S e p 2 0 2 6
