Résumé

Internal carotid artery injury (ICAI) represents one of the most challenging complications in endoscopic endonasal neurosurgery and its rarity results in limited opportunities for trainees and surgeons to achieve proficiency in its management. Currently, available models for ICAI have employed costly systems that prevent their widespread use. The objective of this study is to validate an affordable submersible peristaltic pump (SPP)-based model as a reproducible and realistic paradigm for ICAI management training. A laceration of the left parasellar internal carotid artery was purposely carried out in 2 human cadaveric heads. A blood substitute was perfused to ensure a perfusion flow of 1 L/min using an affordable SPP. A cohort of 20 neurosurgery and otolaryngology residents, fellows, and attendings were enrolled to evaluate the realism and content validity of the model using a validated 5-grade questionnaire. The model proved to mimic a real intraoperative scenario of ICAI with an expected output flow of 1 L/min. Questionnaire responses reported a realistic experience and the impact of this model on improving trainee surgical coordination and capability to rehearse the most accepted repair technique. The use of a fixed noninjected head allowed the reproducibility of the training session without the additional cost of new fresh-frozen heads. The affordable SPP allowed an impactful reduction of ICAI model training expenses maintaining high realism. The SPP-based ICAI model with noninjected cadaveric specimens is an affordable and cost-effective system that allows reproducibility and realism. These qualities favor greater adoption in neurosurgery and otolaryngology training curricula.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Internal carotid artery injury (ICAI) represents one of the most challenging complications in endoscopic endonasal neurosurgery and its rarity results in limited opportunities for trainees and surgeons to achieve proficiency in its management. Currently, available models for ICAI have employed costly systems that prevent their widespread use. The objective of this study is to validate an affordable submersible peristaltic pump (SPP)-based model as a reproducible and realistic paradigm for ICAI management training.
METHODS METHODS
A laceration of the left parasellar internal carotid artery was purposely carried out in 2 human cadaveric heads. A blood substitute was perfused to ensure a perfusion flow of 1 L/min using an affordable SPP. A cohort of 20 neurosurgery and otolaryngology residents, fellows, and attendings were enrolled to evaluate the realism and content validity of the model using a validated 5-grade questionnaire.
RESULTS RESULTS
The model proved to mimic a real intraoperative scenario of ICAI with an expected output flow of 1 L/min. Questionnaire responses reported a realistic experience and the impact of this model on improving trainee surgical coordination and capability to rehearse the most accepted repair technique. The use of a fixed noninjected head allowed the reproducibility of the training session without the additional cost of new fresh-frozen heads. The affordable SPP allowed an impactful reduction of ICAI model training expenses maintaining high realism.
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
The SPP-based ICAI model with noninjected cadaveric specimens is an affordable and cost-effective system that allows reproducibility and realism. These qualities favor greater adoption in neurosurgery and otolaryngology training curricula.
