Penile reconstructive surgery for Peyronie’s disease and congenital penile curvature requires precise correction of curvature and careful dissection of layered penile anatomy. This validated simulator enables surgeons to rehearse plication and plaque incision with grafting in a repeatable training environment before live patient exposure.
| WHAT CAN BE PRACTISED
• Penile plication • Plaque incision and grafting • Layered dissection and key anatomical identification • Surgical correction of penile curvature |
TRAINING SETTINGS
• Reconstructive urology workshops • Simulation centres and skills laboratories • Supervised small-group teaching • Trainee skills development and refreshers |
EDUCATIONAL VALUE
• Procedural rehearsal before live patient exposure • Standardised reconstructive surgery teaching • Supports preparedness and confidence • All evaluated surgeons supported curriculum integration |
| TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Training indications: Peyronie’s disease (PD) and congenital penile curvature (CPC) Construction: Tissue-mimicking silicone moulding Design: Medical image segmentation, CAD and 3D printing Key anatomy: Corporal bodies, dartos, Buck’s fascia, dorsal arteries, deep dorsal vein and tunica albuginea Validation: 6 British urological surgeons; 2 experts (>100 cases) and 4 surgeons (10-60 cases) |
INTENDED TRAINING APPLICATION
• Plication procedure rehearsal • Plaque incision and grafting • Surgical anatomy familiarisation and layered dissection • Instructor-led penile reconstructive surgery teaching |
