[A local course on conventional and laparoscopic surgical techniques. A supplement to surgical education].
In order to increase the possibilities for learning accurate surgical technique in gastrointestinal surgery, we have established a local course for operative training of the registrars. We used organs from pigs--stomach, intestines and liver/gallbladder. They were collected from the local abattoir with assistance from a vet. Conventional gut anastomosis and gastroenteroanastomosis were performed with "two-layer" and "one-layer" techniques. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed with the liver-gallbladder organ block placed in a "black box", in which the organ was perfused with red fluid--a Pulsatile Organ Perfusion System. The registrars' evaluations of the course were very positive. They all thought that the course gave them opportunities for surgical training that were not available in the busy daily routine. The course now forms part of the education programme for surgical registrars in our department.
