Hillway Knee combines the skills of a leading surgeon, a professional sculptor and a plastics moulding expert. For the surgeon's rooms this model is a highly valuable teaching aid for patients about to undergo surgery. A major advance in the field of Arthroscopic training The acquisition of arthroscopic skills is best undertaken at the earliest stage with a model knee. When advanced arthroscopic surgical techniques are later undertaken, the surgeon is wise to practice beforehand on models. The Hillway Knee is unique in its anatomic accuracy and feel.
Normal anatomy is simulated and it is exciting to use.
A variety of internal derangements can be simulated. The soft outer skin wraps around the muscle to complete the knee. Full theatre simulation with irrigation is now possible. The soft compliant muscle wraps around the interior components simulating human tissue . Inner components include all bones and cartilage.
