https://doi.org/10.34631/sporl.434Keywords:
neck dissection, swine modelAbstract
Objectives - Study the swine neck surgery model.
Study design - Descriptive study.
Materials and methods - Systematic literature search of articles (published between 2000 and 2011) using as key terms “swine”, “porcine” and surgery”. Neck dissection in porcine models. Cervical surgical techniques were planned: tracheotomy, classical cordectomy, partial and total laringectomy, partial and total glossectomy, thymectomy, partial and total thyroidectomy, parotidectomy, resection of the common carotid artery and end to end anastomosis and cervical esophagectomy.
Results - Planned surgeries were executed.
Conclusions - The swine model is valid for training in neck surgery.
