To describe the implementation of a program for surgical education in laryngology.
Items necessary to modify a temporal bone lab for laryngeal dissection purposes were identified, and costs to do so were calculated. The prices and availability of human and canine laryngeal specimens to be used for teaching purposes were then compared. Endoscopic and open laryngeal surgery were performed on canine larynges to determine suitability as a teaching model. A laryngeal dissection course with teaching objectives was created and instituted in an Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery residency training program.
Modifications to convert an existing temporal bone lab into a laryngeal dissection lab cost $7,425. Canine larynges were found to strongly resemble human larynges and were easily used in a teaching model. They were more easily acquired and less expensive than human larynges. A novel dissection approach was created to maximize utility of a single cadaveric laryngeal specimen. Development of a laryngeal dissection manual facilitated a laryngeal dissection course.
A laryngeal dissection educational course can be instituted with simple and relatively inexpensive modifications to an existing temporal bone laboratory. Canine larynges can be substituted for human larynges for a substantial cost savings without educational compromise. The educational methods demonstrated can be easily duplicated at other training sites.
描述喉科学外科教育计划的实施情况。
确定了为喉部解剖目的修改颞骨实验室所需的项目，并计算了这样做的成本。然后比较了用于教学目的的人类和犬类喉标本的价格和可用性。对犬类喉进行了内镜和开放性喉外科手术，以确定其作为教学模型的适用性。创建了一个具有教学目标的喉解剖课程，并在耳鼻喉头颈外科住院医师培训计划中实施。
将现有的颞骨实验室改造成喉解剖实验室的费用为 7425 美元。犬类喉与人类喉非常相似，很容易用于教学模型。它们比人类喉更容易获得且成本更低。创建了一种新颖的解剖方法，以最大限度地提高单个尸体喉标本的使用效率。编写了喉解剖手册，方便了喉解剖课程的开展。
通过对现有的颞骨实验室进行简单且相对廉价的修改，可以开设喉解剖教育课程。犬类喉可以替代人类喉，可节省大量成本，而不会影响教育质量。所展示的教育方法可以在其他培训地点轻松复制。
