- * After 4 weeks of training, residents significantly improved their performance, reducing the time taken to complete simulated hernioplasty compared to their initial session.
- * An independent expert could distinguish novices from experienced surgeons at first, but after training, 4 out of 10 residents were no longer recognized as novices, suggesting the model effectively enhances surgical skills.

The planning of revisional bariatric surgery is a complex process. The availability of accurate anatomical information is especially important for the planning of such challenging surgical procedures, we present our initial experience using three-dimensional-computed tomography (3D-CT) images to preoperatively assess the anatomy of patients before bariatric revisional surgery. We used 3D reconstructed images of CT scans to assess the anatomy and plan revisional surgery in 144 patients 98 of them had a previous sleeve gastrectomy 41 had a previous gastric by-pass and 4 Vertical banded gastroplasties.
