    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide GYN pathology simulation models for surgical training. These models are energy-compatible models emulating the tissue-based diseases of the female reproductive system to allow the surgical trainees and surgeons to practice advanced OB/GYN surgical skills. One simulated GYN model includes an electrically conductive elongated tube encapsulating a mass of non-conductive material. The elongated tube having a sidewall with an inner surface and outer surface extending between a proximal end and distal end. The sidewall is configured to have a cavity with a specific volume to yield an external protuberance when filled with the mass of non-conductive material. Another simulated GYN model includes a fluid-filled cystic body encapsulated within an electrically conductive bulbous hollow structure.
