Abstract
Simulated anatomical components, such as simulated vascular vessels, and systems including the same. Such a system includes a housing, a simulated anatomical component inside the housing, and a simulated anatomical abnormality within a passage of the simulated anatomical component, the simulated anatomical abnormality formed as a material of an anatomical mold used to form the simulated anatomical component that has been partially removed to form the passage.
Claims23
A surgical simulation system comprising:
- a housing;
- a simulated anatomical component inside the housing and having one or more layers of material forming a wall around a passage of the anatomical component, the passage configured for liquid to pass therethrough;
- a simulated anatomical abnormality within the passage, the simulated anatomical abnormality formed as a material of an anatomical mold used to form the simulated anatomical component that has been partially removed to form the passage.
A surgical simulation system comprising:
- a modular insert housing, the modular insert housing configured to be connected to a surgical simulation device;
- a simulated anatomical component inside the housing and having one or more layers of material forming a wall around a passage of the anatomical component, the passage configured for liquid to pass therethrough;
- a simulated anatomical abnormality within the passage, the simulated anatomical abnormality formed as a material of an anatomical mold used to form the simulated anatomical component that has been partially removed to form the passage;
- a simulated skin cover attached to the housing and covering the simulated anatomical component;
- and
- one or more simulated components selected from the group consisting of a simulated muscle, a simulated nerve tissue, a simulated adipose tissue, and any combinations thereof, the one or more simulated components being closely associated with or attached to the simulated skin cover.

A surgical simulation system comprising:
- a surgical simulation device having fluid flow components;
- a modular insert housing, the modular insert housing configured to be removably connected to the surgical simulation device;
- a simulated anatomical component inside the housing and having one or more layers of material forming a wall around a passage of the anatomical component, the passage configured for liquid to pass therethrough;
- a simulated anatomical abnormality within the passage, the simulated anatomical abnormality formed as a material of an anatomical mold used to form the simulated anatomical component that has been partially removed to form the passage;
- a simulated skin cover attached to the housing and covering the simulated anatomical component, wherein the housing includes one or more holes configured to connect to the surgical simulation device and allow fluid to flow from the fluid flow components to the passage;
- and
- one or more simulated components selected from the group consisting of a simulated muscle, a simulated nerve tissue, a simulated adipose tissue, and any combinations thereof, the one or more simulated components being closely associated with or attached to the simulated skin cover.
