We aimed to perform a systematic review on the use of TeCs in urology training and their ability to represent real\u2010life anatomy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>PubMed, SCOPUS and Cochrane databases were searched for articles with purpose to explore the use of TeCs in urology training, without date restrictions, according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta\u2010Analyses (PRISMA) statement. From each paper, we evaluated the type of procedure, the number of participants, the type of study, the educational outcomes and their level, according to Kirkpatrick hierarchy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of the 225 records initially retrieved, eight articles were eventually included. All studies evaluated participants' perceptions about the procedure. Overall, urology trainees and specialists have positively commented on the educational value of TeCs, which have been also found able to adequately mimic real\u2010life conditions. In all the eight studies, trainees stated that tissue quality of TeCs was adequately realistic and considered TeCs as a useful surgical training tool.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Although the use of TeCs in urology training has so far been limited, their value as a surgical training tool has been positively perceived. These outcomes suggest that TeCs may also enhance urology trainees' surgical skills and may encourage their implementation as a simulation tool in urology training.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/ans.18436","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,29]],"date-time":"2023-03-29T00:35:22Z","timestamp":1680050122000},"page":"1787-1792","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Use of\n                    <scp>Thiel<\/scp>\n                    \u2010embalmed cadavers in urology training and their ability to retain real\u2010life anatomy: a systematic review"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"93","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2746-7121","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dimitrios","family":"Chytas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Basic Sciences Laboratory, Department of Physiotherapy University of Peloponnese  Sparta Greece"},{"name":"European University Cyprus  Nicosia Cyprus"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kostis","family":"Gyftopoulos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, School of Medicine University of Patras  Patras Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4081\/aiua.2020.2.93"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1445-2197.2010.05454.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0940-9602(11)80346-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0940-9602(02)80121-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_1","first-page":"91","article-title":"Thiel soft\u2010fix method for long term preservation","volume":"3","author":"Denis\u2010Rodr\u00edguez E","year":"2017","journal-title":"Rev Mex Med Forense"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_1","first-page":"71","article-title":"Walther Thiel method for the preservation of corpses with maintenance of the main physical properties of vivo","volume":"2","author":"Bertone VH","year":"2011","journal-title":"Rev.
