Sponsor's own description

There are many possible surgical treatments when a patient presents with lower urinary tract symptoms due to an enlarged prostate, termed benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH. One technique consists of using a laser to remove prostatic tissue through the penis, called laser enucleation of the prostate or LEP. LEP also has excellent properties to reduce blood loss and results in shorter hospital stays. Trainees must observe and perform several procedures before mastering the LEP technique. Different models have been used to mimic the LEP experience for surgeon trainees, such as virtual simulators or synthetic models. While these simulators offer an alternative to LEP procedures on real patients, they may lack realism which renders the simulator less representative than the real procedure.The 3D-printed prostate model of the present study mimics the properties of real-life prostatic tissue. In the setting of the MasterClass, trainees will perform LEP on the 3D models under the supervision of three experts. While the 3D organ phantom has been used to practice performing other procedures, this is the first time it will evaluated for LEP training. For this reason, the investigators will be assessing this model as a training tool.
