[Simulation training of laparoscopic skills in gynaecology].

Laparoscopic techniques are increasingly being applied in gynaecology in Denmark. Despite this, the training and assessment of basic skills are still not managed with a valid, reliable and systematic approach. Laparoscopic simulators might be the innovative answer to this challenge, but implementation needs to be evidence-based This paper discusses the latest metaanalysis of the evidence of simulator systems for evaluation and transfer of technical surgical skills, and the paper also points out areas that need further investigation before implementation of simulators in the gynaecological surgical curriculum.
