ABSTRACT:
Teaching aids or training aids in the form of organ replicas or organ models each of which is anatomically correct and has the shape, size, vascular components and attachments that are found in live organs in various animals, humans and the like to facilitate teaching or training of students or other individuals in various medical or veterinarian practices. The training aid includes a body cavity model in which the interior is a replica of the inside of the abdominal area with all of the contours that are normally present and the exterior is a replica of the shape of the outside of the abdominal area with a relatively large hole or opening formed in the upper surface to allow for surgical exposure of the organ replicas or models positioned within the abdominal cavity. The organ replicas or models closely simulate living organs in texture, color, consistency and handling properties to form the replicas or models as lifelike as possible with the organ models feeling, handling, capable of being cut and sutured in the same manner as live organs with the colors of the organ models being determined by color matching each organ model with the color of an actual live organ during a surgical procedure. The organ replicas or models are held in the body cavity in apposed relation by retaining structures to maintain the relationship of the organ replicas in the body cavity in a manner similar to live organs being retained in the body cavity.
