Objective To explore the value of different levels of laparoscopic simulating training in different seniority of gynecologic residents. Methods Seventy-seven residents in their one to four training-year were trained with different levels of simulating training plans and then assessed in the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in Peking University Third Hospital. Results The qualified rate of primary and advanced simulation training was 85.7% and 57.1% respectively. The operative skills improved significantly in all the residents. In the first- and second- year residents

the scores of the primary training increased more obviously

while in the third- and fourth-year residents

the scores of the advanced training increased significantly. Conclusion It might be more helpful for residents with different seniority to receive different levels of simulating training

so as to improve their laparoscopic operative skills more effectively.
