Abstract
Pediatric airway surgery, one of the complex procedures in otolaryngology, often demands a good surgical dexterity. To improve the surgical skills, a simulation laboratory can be a good option. Here we present a model of an airway surgery laboratory which is very minimalist and can be easily established in any hospital setup. Also, we discuss briefly on how a three dimensional (3D) model of an airway can be generated and printed from the digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) CT imaging data of the patients along with the scope of 3D printing in airway surgery.
