Simulation training of laparoscopic pancreaticojejunostomy and stepwise training program on a 3D-printed model

Our pancreaticojejunostomy model showed a good degree of discernibility, as surgeons with more experience performed better with the model for their initial simulation training in laparoscopic pancreaticojejunostomy. Stepwise training of the laparoscopic biliary-enteric anastomosis training program helped surgeons obtain a better initial performance, and repeated simulation training on this model improved the surgeon's operative performance.
