GENERAL SURGERY/LAPAROSCOPIC MODELS
EndoSim developed realistic simulation models for common laparoscopic and open surgical procedures using ex-vivo explants. We also carry an assortment of deconstructed task modules to practice basic laparoscopy. Of highest importance is the haptic feedback of our real tissue simulation models, which provide a training experience comparable to a real patient.
Our simulation models use two components: a plastic trainer (hardware) used in conjunction with a disposable ex-vivo specimen (software). Some disposable specimens are hybrid models combining plastic, silicon with real tissue.
Our specimens and trainer rentals are shipped express for on-time and fresh arrival. All specimens are shipped frozen and will require thawing and refrigerated storage upon arrival.
Please see a list of our simulators and specimens below. Custom specimens are available! Please contact us if you are interested in a custom-made training model for your hands-on workshop.
Surgical Simulators/Trainers
LapEASIE-R Laparoscopic Simulator
The new LapEASIE-R Laparoscopic Simulator allows both the use of deconstructed task modules, as well as realistic ex-vivo porcine specimens for laparoscopic training of novices and advanced surgeons.
The new LapEASIE-R Laparoscopic Simulator allows both the use of deconstructed task modules, as well as realistic ex-vivo porcine specimens for laparoscopic training of novices and advanced surgeons. The simulator consists of a bowl-shaped base with a Pegboard that can hold task trainers as well as complete ex-vivo organ packages. The simulator includes a dome-shaped top with 25 rubber ports to insert the instruments. A moveable camera is installed, and the laparoscopic image is displayed on the tablet mounted at an ergonomic eye-level height. This simulator can be equipped with a computer to facilitate online virtual training using the Endosim VR training software.
Compact LapEASIE-R Laparoscopic Simulator
The newest of the LapEASIE-R series. The Compact LapEASIE-R Simulator is a compact version that allows both the use of deconstructed task modules, synthetic models, and realistic ex-vivo porcine specimens for laparoscopic training of novices and advanced surgeons

EASIE-R3 (TM) Simulator with PEG Lid
Our PEG trainer includes a special lid with a rubber membrane to simulate the abdominal wall puncture for the PEG placement.
Foregut
The stomach is adjacent to the abdominal wall which facilitates transillumination.

NOTES
The EASIE-R1 (TM) is a new modification of the Erlangen Active Simulator for Interventional Endoscopy (EASIE TM) designed for the realistic simulation of interventional endoscopy, including EUS and NOTES. The ex-vivo porcine gastrointestinal organ packages used in this model are obtained from the meat production industry and provide a realistic tactile feedback with the possibility to use commercially available endoscopic and surgical devices.

Surgical Real Tissue Ex-vivo Models
Upper GI Biliary Explant Specimen
Porcine ex-vivo esophagus-stomach-duodenum-biliary tract-liver-gallbladder specimen
Cholecystectomy
Liver Resection
Lap Fundoplication
Heller Myotomy
Porcine ex-vivo esophagus-stomach-duodenum-biliary tract-liver-gallbladder specimen.
This complete biliary model contains the native (unaltered) biliary tract including major duodenal papilla, common bile duct, cystic duct, gallbladder, and intrahepatic ducts. Please note that the porcine major papilla does not have a common confluence of common bile duct and pancreatic duct. In the native porcine specimen, the pancreatic duct enters the duodenum at the minor papilla, separate from the common bile duct.
