A porcine ex-vivo model to train scrotal exploration in a regional Australian centre: a pilot study

This study demonstrates the success of a novel porcine <i>ex-vivo</i> model in facilitating teaching of scrotal exploration and orchidopexy for junior surgeons in regional Australia. This pilot study demonstrates acquisition and retention of competency with a porcine model which may facilitate broader education in this emergency procedure to urology and general surgical trainees.
