Laparoscopic ventral hernia repair (LVHR) is a relatively common procedure that requires advanced minimally invasive surgical skills to perform. The role for simulation is increasingly supported as an effective way to teach surgical skills and accelerate the learning curve. This article describes The University of Maryland's Surgical Abdominal Wall, an inexpensive procedure-specific physical simulator for LVHR, and summarizes the authors' early experiences using this model in a curriculum for surgery residents.
腹腔镜腹疝修补术（LVHR）是一种相对常见的手术，需要具备先进的微创手术技能才能实施。模拟训练作为一种教授手术技能和加速学习曲线的有效方法，其作用越来越得到认可。本文介绍了马里兰大学的腹壁手术模拟器，这是一种用于LVHR的低成本、特定手术的物理模拟器，并总结了作者在外科住院医师课程中使用该模型的早期经验。
