“…Our presented simulator for training surgery such as the LLETZ of the cervix is a new approach for training of novice gynecological surgeons. Until now, simulators for LLETZ-procedures mostly used simple materials, which only partly resembled the real anatomy of the cervix [20,21,[23][24][25][26][27][28][29] [29]. Until now, simulators are lacking, which display as many parts of a dysplasia consultation as possible and secondly do so in a standardized manner.…”

“…Additionally, there are no standardized simulators for procedures such as the LLETZ. Yet possible ideas for such simulators or phantoms can be found in many parts of literature [20,21,[23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. Often rather simple simulators are used or produced, which are easily and quickly assembled and do not require too many financial resources.…”

Purpose Electrosurgery is the gold-standard procedure for the treatment of cervical dysplasia. The quality of the outcome depends on the accuracy of performance, which underlines the role of adequate training of surgeons, especially, as this procedure is often performed by novice surgeons. According to our knowledge, medical simulation has up until now lacked a model, which focuses on realistically simulating the treatment of cervical dysplasia with the concerning anatomy. Methods and result In our work, we present a model created using 3D printing for holistically simulating diagnostic, as well as surgical interventions of the cervix, as realistically as possible. Conclusion This novel simulator is compared to an existing model and both are evaluated. By doing so, we aim to provide novice gynecologists with standardized and high-quality simulation models for practicing to improve their proficiency.
