Good as Gold: A New Look At One of the Most Commonly Performed Surgeries
Get the lowdown on the abdomen and learn about some alternative case presentations and approaches to one of the most commonly performed surgeries, the Laparoscopic Appendectomy, in our latest simulation.
VATS All Folks: Minimally Invasive Surgery in the Left Lower Lobe
A segmentectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of a lung segment in the treatment of lung cancer. Unlike lobectomies, segmentectomies preserve the pulmonary parenchyma. This simulation shows the key steps in performing a Left Lower Lobe Superior Segmentectomy.
RUL The Day of Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery
Lung cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the world, and a lobectomy is often performed as part of the treatment plan. Our new simulation demonstrates how a video-assisted thoracic surgery, or VATS, is performed to successfully resect a lobe of the lung.
A Procedure for the Masses: Why Laparoscopic Left Lateral Sectionectomies are the new gold standard
Laparoscopic Left Lateral Sectionectomy is becoming the gold standard for removing tumors in the left lobe of the liver, but the procedure still remains highly specialized and lacks standardization. Learn all the need-to-know anatomy and how the procedure can be safely performed in our latest simulation.
A Problem of Pandemic Proportions: Surgical Solutions for Obesity
Obesity is becoming a major crisis worldwide, with rates almost tripling in the last 40 years. Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy is a popular procedure for excessive weight when non-surgical interventions are unsuccessful. Learn more about this surgery in our latest simulation.
IPOMp and Circumstance: Fixing a Hernia with an Intraperitoneal Onlay Mesh
Laparoscopic IPOM repair of a recurrent ventral incisional hernia on Touch Surgery illustrates the intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) method.
Taking the ‘S’ out of Intestine: Performing Laparoscopic Sigmoidectomy
Colorectal cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the world. This simulation demonstrates how to perform a laparoscopic sigmoidectomy for a distal sigmoid carcinoma.
The Critical View of Safety: Case Variations in Lap Chole
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy is a tricky business and they don’t always go as planned. Learn more about case variations and how to adapt in the operating room if the critical view of safety cannot be achieved.
Curvature to the Aperture: Step by Step through Minimally Invasive Vaginal Hysterectomy
Learn the surgical technique to remove the uterus through a minimally invasive approach. Using a natural orifice minimizes the number of incisions needed.
A Tell-Tale Spine: When a lateral interbody fusion should be performed
Learn how to perform a lateral lumbar interbody fusion and about the potential advantages it has over the posterior approach in the Touch Surgery™ app.
Mission: Incision — Open Retromuscular Repair of a Ventral Incisional Hernia
Touch Surgery’s™ new simulation demonstrates how to perform an open surgery to repair a ventral incisional hernia using Medtronic’s ProGrip™ self-gripping polyester mesh.
Born This Way: Vaginal Breech Birth
Our latest module, in partnership with the Breech Birth Network, demonstrates indications for intervention, maneuvers, and physiological mechanisms for breech birth.
Anatomy Series: The Knee
Our latest anatomy simulation introduces you to the complex and highly flexible structure that is the knee.
Surgical Education in Limited Resource Settings: Performing a Manual Split-Thickness Skin Graft
Our latest module, in partnership with Global Surgery Amsterdam, demonstrates a manual split-thickness skin graft as part of the Safe Surgery 2020 initiative.
Open and Shut Case: Indirect Inguinal Hernia Repair
Learn how to perform an open mesh repair for the most common type of abdominal wall hernia.
Anatomy Series: The Liver
This simulation introduces you to the Brisbane 2000 classification of liver anatomy.
Don’t Leave it Till the Appendix: Laparoscopic Appendectomy Instrument Tray
Touch Surgery's simulated module takes you through a typical instrument tray you might use for a laparoscopic appendectomy.
TAPP into our Inguinal Hernia Repair Simulation
Learn the key steps and objectives of a laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repair of an indirect inguinal hernia.
Track and Tray your Cystoscopy Instruments
Familiarize yourself with the key instrumentation of a rigid cystoscopy and learn how to assemble a rigid cystoscope.
Strap yourself in for our guide to Patient Positioning
Our latest simulation demonstrates how to ensure safe and effective patient positioning is adhered to. This simulation provides the key steps for positioning in supine, prone, lateral, lithotomy, sitting, Trendelenburg, and reverse Trendelenburg. As well as the management of position-associated risks, for example, the safety of at-risk soft tissue and neurovasculature.
