Abstract
Key steps of laparoscopic reconstruction procedures are based on effective anastomotic or reconstructive techniques, which include radical prostatectomy, pyeloplasty, ureteral reimplantation, and partial nephrectomy. Meticulous suturing skills, adequate exposure of the operative field, and accurate camera navigation which are essential to the success of the above three procedures can be developed by undergoing an intensive advanced training. In this chapter, details of the making of the training models and training procedures designed for the above three procedures are well described. Besides, the “anatomizing the orange” model is also described.
