Description
The carotid endarterectomy (CEA) training cartridge is the most realistic vascular surgery trainer on the market. The simulated artery cuts and sutures like real human vascular tissue and includes lifelike plaque, so users can practice dissection, clamping, shunting, endarterectomy, and patch angioplasty in an unparalleled simulated environment.
Clinically Accurate Anatomy
Beyond the carotid artery and plaque, each cartridge includes the jugular vein, facial vein, sternocleidomastoid muscle, vagus nerve, and hypoglossal nerve — so trainees learn to navigate and protect the structures that matter in a real neck dissection.
Use It With the OVTS
Blood flow can be simulated by using this cartridge in the compatible Open Vascular Training System, taking the realism a step further.

Is the plaque realistic?
The simulated plaque is the most realistic training option available for endarterectomy procedures.
Is it reusable?
The cartridge is a replaceable consumable — each trainee works on a fresh, consistent surgical field.
