Abstract
There is a well-recognized need for the development of surgical skills of junior trainees in all branches of medicine. The resort to human cadavers, animal, or human-simulated plastic models is widely practiced. The larynges of animals have been previously used experimentally to study different surgical techniques and have been the subject of study for some physiological aspects of the larynx. The dog/canine larynx has been used as an animal model for more than two centuries for phonatory research. In our study we introduced our model that includes a blackfinished metallic box, with a movable top and a sidewall nails that help incorporate and fix animal larynges for training on common Endolaryngeal procedures, Animal larynges were supplied from slaughter houses assuring medical check-up and official stamping. To validate our model, a three-day workshop for novice twenty residents as well as three elder practitioners was held in our department. The results of the study showed significant elevation of the standard of theoretical knowledge and surgical skills of both residents and practitioners.
