الوصف: Background Changes in UK legislation allow for surgical procedures to be performed on cadavers. The aim of this study was to assess Thiel cadavers as high‐fidelity simulators and to examine their suitability for surgical training. Methods Surgeons from various specialties were invited to attend a 1 day dissection workshop using Thiel cadavers. The surgeons completed a baseline questionnaire on cadaveric simulation. At the end of the workshop, they completed a similar questionnaire based on their experience with Thiel cadavers. Comparing the answers in the pre‐ and post‐workshop questionnaires assessed whether using Thiel cadavers had changed the surgeons’ opinions of cadaveric simulation. Results According to the 27 participants, simulation is important for surgical training and a full‐procedure model is beneficial for all levels of training. Currently, there is dissatisfaction with existing models and a need for high‐fidelity alternatives. After the workshop, surgeons concluded that Thiel cadavers are suitable for surgical simulation ( p = 0.015). Thiel were found to be realistic ( p < 0.001) to have reduced odour ( p = 0.002) and be more cost‐effective ( p = 0.003). Ethical constraints were considered to be small. Conclusion Thiel cadavers are suitable for training in most surgical specialties.
