The Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) Model is a realistic vascular surgical training simulator designed to help clinicians and trainees practise complex vascular procedures.

The model replicates the anatomy of the abdominal aorta, including the ascending aorta, renal vessels and aortoiliac bifurcation into the left and right common iliac arteries. This configuration allows surgeons to simulate the surgical exposure and repair techniques required during abdominal aortic aneurysm procedures.

The simulator is designed for practising open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, vascular clamping, aneurysm excision, graft placement and vascular anastomosis techniques.

When combined with compatible abdominal surgical simulators, the model can create a highly realistic surgical training environment for residents, fellows and experienced vascular surgeons.

Simulation-based training enables clinicians to practise procedures repeatedly in a controlled environment, helping improve surgical precision and confidence before performing procedures in clinical settings.

The AAA model is commonly used in:

• vascular surgery training programmes
• medical schools and universities
• surgical skills laboratories
• teaching hospitals
• surgical education workshops

Training Applications

This vascular surgical simulator can be used for practising procedures including:

• Open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair
• Aortoiliac reconstruction
• Vascular clamping techniques
• Aneurysm excision procedures
• Vascular graft placement
• End-to-end vascular anastomosis
• Surgical skills laboratory training
• Vascular surgery education workshops

These procedures are essential for developing both basic and advanced vascular surgical skills.

Key Features

The abdominal aortic aneurysm simulator is designed to replicate the behaviour of real vascular tissue.

Key features include:

• Realistic abdominal aorta anatomy
• Includes renal vessels and aortoiliac bifurcation
• Simulated aneurysm for surgical training
• Suitable for surgical instruments and sutures
• Easy to handle and maintain
• Nontoxic synthetic tissue material
