Simulations and simulators have become an increasingly important tool in trainee education across many surgical disciplines, particularly for robotic and minimally invasive procedures. Thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy are common procedures performed across multiple surgical disciplines, however, there is limited literature regarding training models/simulators for these operations. This is despite the advent and growing popularity of remote-access thyroidectomy techniques, where simulators may provide significant value in trainee education and safe implementation. Here we review the literature regarding available simulations/simulators in head and neck endocrine surgery for both conventional transcervical approaches and newer remote-access thyroidectomy techniques.
模拟和模拟器已成为许多外科领域培训学员的一项日益重要的工具，尤其是在机器人手术和微创手术方面。甲状腺切除术和甲状旁腺切除术是多个外科领域常见的手术，然而，关于这些手术的培训模型/模拟器的文献有限。尽管远程接入甲状腺切除术技术已经出现且越来越受欢迎，但模拟器在学员培训和安全实施方面可能具有重要价值，情况依然如此。在此，我们回顾了关于头颈内分泌外科中常规经颈入路和更新的远程接入甲状腺切除术技术的可用模拟/模拟器的文献。
