A surgical training and demonstration tool, comprising:
- a base member comprising:
- a first fixture receptacle having a recessed portion defined by a substantially planar recess wall;
- and
- a plurality of second fixture receptacles including shaped bores formed partially through the fixture base;
- and
- a surgical training fixture comprising:
- a fixture base member sized to be frictionally received in the recessed portion of the first fixture receptacle;
- and
- a surgical training fixture joint portion attached to the fixture base member and extending therefrom, the joint portion being sized and shaped to approximate a specific surgical anatomy.
A surgical training and demonstration tool, comprising:
- an oblong base member having a centrally positioned first fixture receptacle, the first fixture receptacle being recessed into the rectangular base member and defined by a substantially planar bottom surface and vertical recess wall;
- at least one fixture receptacle positioned near a distal end of the rectangular base, and receptacles having a plurality of holes formed partially into the rectangular base;
- a surgical training fixture having a fixture base sized to be frictionally received in the recessed portion of the first fixture receptacle;
- and
- a surgical training fixture surface attached to the fixture base member and extending therefrom, the fixture surface being sized and shaped to illustrate a specific surgical area.
A surgical training tool, comprising:
- a rectangular base member having a centrally positioned rectangular shaped first fixture receptacle, the first fixture receptacle being recessed into the rectangular base member and defined by a substantially planar and vertical recess wall;
- at least one circular fixture receptacle positioned near a distal end of the rectangular base, each of the circular fixture receptacles having a plurality of cylindrical holes formed partially into the rectangular base;
- a surgical training fixture having a fixture base sized to be frictionally received in the recessed portion of the rectangular shaped first fixture receptacle;
- a semi spherical surgical training fixture surface attached to the fixture base member and extending therefrom, the fixture surface being sized and shaped to demonstrate a specific surgical area;
- a tabbed shaped tissue specimen attached to an apex of the semi spherical surface, the tabbed shaped tissue specimen having a central portion and a plurality of tissue flaps extending therefrom.
A surgical training and demonstration tool including a base member with a first fixture receptacle having a retainer portion defined by a vertical wall and a surgical training feature including a fixture having a fixture base having a vertical wall frictional cooperation with the recessed portion of the first fixture receptacle and the fixture having a surgical training fixture joint portion that approximates a specific anatomy and the fixture joint portion extends from the fixture base member.
