Canniesburn "ever-ready" model to practise microsurgery.
An experimental model is described to practise microsurgery with material readily available in any routine operating theatre. By using a simple mathematical formula of C = pi x D, tubes of different diameters can be constructed for either end-to-end or end-to-side anastomoses.
