Advanced Surgical Simulation focused on Endonasal Surgeries
The Problem
The Solution
The Opportunity
This innovation will address a critical unmet need in surgical training, where technical complexity, time constraints, and variability in teaching compromise learning. Our initial commercial focus targets surgical simulation centers and medical device companies. Currently, over 600,000 sinus surgeries are performed annually in the U.S. Complication rates range from 5–10%, often due to trainee inexperience. Typically, trainees are restricted to 80-hour work weeks, limiting hands-on learning opportunities. The global surgical simulation market is projected to exceed $7B by 2030.
Status
Surgical Steps is a university-industry collaboration developing clinically validated, VR-based training tools to transform procedural education. Our mission is to reduce surgical error through immersive learning that blends anatomy, physiology, and cognitive performance.
