Simulation in endoscopic sinus surgery allows residents to learn anatomy, to achieve the correct handling of various rhinological instruments, and to practice different surgical procedures. Physically or non-virtual reality models are the main items in endoscopic sinus surgery simulation. The objective of this review is to identify and make a descriptive analysis of non-virtual endoscopic sinus surgery simulators which have been proposed for training. As a new state of the art, surgical simulators are developed continuously, so they can be used to learn basic endoscopic surgery skills by repetitive maneuvers, permitting detection of surgical error and incidents without risk for the patient. Of all training physical models, the ovine model stands out because of the similarities of the sinonasal pathways, the wide availability, and the low costs. Considering the similar nature of the tissues involved, the techniques and surgical instruments can be used almost interchangeably with minimal differences. Every surgical technique studied until now has a degree of risk and the only aspects that consistently reduced the number of complications are training, repetition, and hands-on experience.

“…For statistical analysis, Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) 26.0 (Armonk, NY, USA: IBM Corp) was used. Data from the questionnaire was collected as numerical variables (1)(2)(3)(4)(5). For each group, mean and standard deviation were calculated for an individual answer within the questionnaire.…”

“…For endoscopic sinus surgery training, both the in-vivo ovine model and cadaveric simulations offer high handling fidelity. In certain countries, in-vivo animal simulation is prohibited, making animal cadaveric simulation a more accessible substitute [3,4]. The ovine sinus model allows the acquisition of endoscopic surgical skills using video endoscopic techniques.…”

Background and Objectives: This study aims to establish the sheep head as a viable anatomical model for training in functional endoscopic sinus surgery through comprehensive anatomical examination and training-based assessment of participants’ satisfaction. Materials and Methods: Participants were divided into three groups according to their prior experience in endoscopic sinus surgery; in total, 24 participants were included. Each participant in the study was assigned to perform the designated procedures on a single sheep’s head. Following the completion of the procedures, each participant was provided with a 14-item comprehensive satisfaction questionnaire with a scale attributed from 1 to 5. The normality of distribution was checked by applying the Shapiro-Wilk Test. The Kruskal–Wallis test was applied to compare study group sentiment of agreement towards individual procedures. Results: No significant differences were noted between the answers of the different groups. For the resident group, the average satisfaction score was 4.09 ± 0.54; junior specialist group 4.00 ± 0.55; for the senior specialist group overall satisfaction average score was 4.2 ± 0.77. Conclusions: The sheep’s head can be successfully used for learning and practicing manual skills and the use of instruments specific to functional endoscopic sinus surgery. Moreover, the sheep head model can be used for training in other diagnostic or surgical procedures in the field of otorhinolaryngology, such as endoscopy of the salivary glands, open laryngotracheal surgery, or in otologic surgery, but also in other different surgical fields such as neurosurgery, ophthalmology or plastic surgery. Despite the differences between the ovine model and human anatomy, it provides a resourceful and cost-effective model for beginners in endoscopic nasal surgery.

Endoscopic sinus surgery(ESS)is one of the most common surgeries performed for chronic sinusitis, but it carries a high risk of damaging adjacent organs, such as the skull base and orbit 1) . To minimize this risk, ESS is often performed utilizing an optical or magnetic surgical navigation system. However, there are still many reports of complications included CSF leak, diplopia, postoperative hemorrhage 2) ,3) . Skill learning support is necessary for the improvement of surgical outcomes. In recent years, there are many studies have been reported on ESS education methods using a sim-ulator based on real anatomical models or Virtual Reality (VR) . Abdulaziz et al. developed a 3D-printed model based on CT images of the patient for the training of ESS skills 4) . Also, there are many VR simulators with haptic feedback 5) ,6) . Samuel et al. developed a comparatively lowcost mixed-reality simulator combining VR and 3D-printed models 7) . In addition to the fact that the simulator can practice repeatedly, there are also a report that the experience level of the surgeon and the result of the simulator have a positive correlation 6) . Therefore, it can be said that simulator training is a useful training tool for resident. However, it is pointed out that there are few products that currently have been commercialized and they are very expensive, and there is no platform that can be widely used in training programs 8) -10) . Although the importance of training using a simulator is increasing, the traditional On the Job Training (OJT)is still important 9) ,11) . The traditional apprenticeship
