Özet
Laboratory training models are essential for developing and refining surgical skills before clinical application of microneurosurgery. Our aim is to train residents of neurosurgery to be familiar with a basic microneurosurgical technique in access to the lateral ventricle via a transcallosal approach. The training material consists of a 2-year-old fresh cadaveric cow cranium. A four-step approach was designed to simulate microneurosurgical dissection along the falx to visualize cingulated gyri, callosomarginal and pericallosal arteries in order to perform callosotomy and access to the lateral ventricle, and finally to the foramen of Monroe. We conclude that the model perfectly simulates standard microneurosurgical steps in interhemispheric-transcallosal approach to the lateral ventricle and to the area of the foramen of Monroe.
