Endoscope exercise module for simulating hiatus hernia
By designing a laparoscopic practice module consisting of a base, an esophageal hiatus model block, and a gastric module, the problem that existing modules cannot simulate the anatomical structures around the esophagus and gastric fundus has been solved, thereby reducing the difficulty of surgery for beginners and improving their skills.

AI Technical Summary
The existing laparoscopic training modules cannot effectively simulate the anatomical structures around the esophagus and gastric fundus, resulting in greater surgical difficulty and a longer learning curve for beginners when performing hiatal hernia surgery.
A laparoscopic practice module was designed, comprising a base, an esophageal hiatus model block, and a gastric module. The module is slidably connected to the esophageal hiatus model block through an opening on the base. Combined with a clamping mechanism consisting of a clamping plate and an adjusting screw, it simulates the operation of dissecting the esophagus and gastric fundus under a laparoscope, providing stability and detachability.
It shortens the learning curve for beginners to perform hiatal hernia surgery, improves their surgical skills, and enhances the stability and practicality of simulation training.
