Microsurgery Simulation Training System and Set up- An Essential System to Complement Every Training Programme

Introduction Microsurgical techniques are essential in Plastic Surgery but with changes in training, acquiring these skills can be difficult. To address this, we have designed a standardised laboratory-based microsurgical training programme which allows trainees to develop their dexterity, visuospatial ability, operative flow and judgement as separate components. Method Thirty trainees completed an initial microsurgical anastomosis on a chicken femoral artery assessed using the Structured Assessment of Microsurgical Skills (SAMS) method.
