Design of a non-biohazardous perfused simulation model for transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) using 3D printing and hydrogel casting

Background: To develop a bleeding simulator for transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBT) and evaluate its use as a training tool. Methods: Anatomical models of the human bladder and relevant structures were created with poly-vinyl alcohol hydrogels using 3D printed molds. Mucosal, muscular,...
