Contribution of a virtual hysteroscopic simulator in the learning of hysteroscopic myoma resection

摘要

Objectives. - Uterine myomas are a frequent pathology affecting 20% of women of reproductive age. Myomas induce abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic pain and increase the risk of infertility and obstetrical complications. Symptomatic sub-mucosal myomas are classically treated by hysteroscopic resection. Simulation is a method of education and training. It could improve quality and security of cares. The aim of this study is to assess the interest of a hysteroscopic simulator for the resection of myoma by novice surgeons.
