[Assessment of resident training in laparoscopic surgery based on a digestive system anastomosis model in the laboratory].

Background: The complexity of laparoscopic surgery makes specific training out of the operating rooms necessary to shorten learning curves and to minimise morbidity rates. Our aim was to analyse the increase in laparoscopic skills after completion of a laboratory training program.

Material And Methods: Prospective study of surgical resident training based on anastomosis performance on an "endotrainer".
