Abstract
BACKGROUND
Preparing exercises at the temporal bone are a prerequisite for the knowledge of the anatomical special features of this region and for learning the fundamentals of the tympanic cavity surgery. Since however fewer human temporal bones are available, the search for back-up models already took place in the last years.
METHODS
Based on the experiences of the handling and visualization of CT data for the 3D-implant construction in the ent department Jena a temporal bone model was developed. The model was sent away to surgeons of different training. On the basis of identification of anatomical structures and evaluation of general parameters by means of a point system the model was evaluated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS
The Jenaer temporal bone model is suitable as entrance into the preparing exercises. The anatomical structures are good to identify for the beginner. The handling with drill and chisel can be learned.
