The left kidney and relevant vessels are embedded in simulated fat for laparoscopic repair of a pelvi-uroteric junction obstruction (PUJO), and for the ultimate removal of the kidney. Developed in conjunction with the Bristol Urological Institute, UK: it has been validated on courses which are run by the British Association of Urological Surgeons (BAUS).

Skills

• Dissection and ligation of vessels
• Tissue plane dissection
• Anastomosis of the ureter to the pelvis (pyeloplasty)
• Following complete dissection of the kidney, the specimen can be removed in a retrieval bag, as one would do in the clinical scenario

Features

• Presents the following realistic anatomy:
  • fat
  • Gerota's fascia
  • left renal artery and vein, and relevant fascia layers
  • left kidney
  • left pelvis and ureter
  • gonadal artery and vein
  • representation of aorta
• The fat separates realistically using blunt dissection
• Blood vessels and ureter are fluid filled
• No preparation, and instantly replaceable during training courses
• Secures to Soft Tissue Retaining Set
• Use within MATT Trainer - Basic, Standard or 3-Dmed Laparoscopic Trainer
