Moving Beyond the Temporal Bone Lab: Creating a Drilling Station in the Otolaryngology Clinic.
Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery 2024 March 18
With the advent of operable 3-dimensional (3D)-printed models, case preparation could occur outside of the cadaveric laboratory. The objective of this study was to design a mobile drilling station that can be used for surgical practice in a variety of clean workplaces. Using materials obtained from hardware stores and online retailers, a wheelable drilling station was constructed to mimic laboratory conditions while also being easily maneuverable into clinic rooms. The station houses the otologic drill, suction, and irrigation mechanisms, is height adjustable, and has a shielded workspace. The mobile drilling station was moved into a microscope-containing otolaryngology clinic room where faculty and trainees were asked to drill a pediatric 3D-printed temporal bone followed by completing an evaluation survey. This is the first mobile drilling station described in the literature and can be easily constructed, mobilized, and used in an otolaryngology clinic for dedicated surgical practice using 3D-printed models.
