The Bile Duct Training Model is a realistic surgical simulator designed to support the development of hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgical techniques.

This model replicates the structure and behaviour of the human bile duct, allowing surgeons and trainees to practise delicate procedures such as duct-to-mucosa anastomosis and bile duct repair. The realistic tubular structure provides tactile feedback similar to biological tissue when cutting and suturing.

Simulation-based training allows clinicians to practise complex procedures repeatedly in a controlled environment, improving surgical precision and confidence before performing procedures on patients.

The bile duct model is particularly useful for training in pancreatic surgery and hepatobiliary procedures, where precise suturing techniques are critical. Studies evaluating similar training models report high levels of realism for suturing behaviour and tissue handling during pancreatic surgery training.

The model is widely used in medical schools, surgical residency programmes, teaching hospitals and surgical skills laboratories.

Training Applications

This surgical training model can be used for practising a range of procedures including:

• Duct-to-mucosa anastomosis
• Hepatobiliary surgical suturing
• Pancreatic surgery training
• Biliary reconstruction techniques
• Gastrointestinal surgical suturing
• Surgical skills laboratory training
• Medical student surgical education
• Surgical training workshops

These procedures are fundamental for surgeons training in hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery.
