A surgical training aid apparatus for facilitating the training of medical
procedures comprising a housing and an anatomical replicating assembly.
The housing includes a tray having a bottom surface and a top surface
opposite the bottom surface. The anatomical replicating assembly is
positioned upon the top surface of the tray of the housing, and includes
a base layer and at least one body component. The base layer has a bottom
surface and a top surface, and, overlays a portion of the top surface of
the tray of the housing. The base layer further includes a tackiness. The
body component is positioned between the top surface of the housing and
the bottom surface of the base layer or on the base layer. The body
component likewise includes a tackiness. The body component is releasably
coupled to the base layer due to the tackiness of the two components,
wherein the tackiness is overcome so as to separate the at least one body
component relative to the base layer.
