The Edinburgh FESS Trainer: a cadaver-based bench-top practice system for endoscopic ethmoidal surgery.
Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) requires cadaver-based practice to acquire the necessary technical expertise. To enable this to be undertaken as a bench-top activity the Edinburgh FESS Training system has been developed. This involves the en-bloc removal of the relevant parts of the nasal cavity and sinuses from cadavers and their embedding and mounting in a simulated head.
