Abstract

Today there is no discussion as to the importance of training future surgeons and surgical specialists through simulation.
The development of various models has made it possible to reduce the gap in theoretical and practical learning, demonstrating clearly favorable results in terms of reducing time and improving quality in surgical practice.
For this, it is necessary that each healthcare center where the teaching activity aimed at residents and postgraduates is carried out has infrastructure, materials and trained teachers.
