Abstract: The emergence of problem-based learning（ PBL） and case-based learning（ CBL） has driven the development of medical education models， transforming the traditional teaching methods and enriching students’ learning experiences. Additionally， the application of virtual simulation technology in medicine and education has further advanced medical education methods， making education techniques more comprehensive and flexible. In the plastic surgery education， virtual simulation technology is integrated into the dual-track teaching system of PBL and CBL to construct a comprehensive teaching system of basic theory， clinical practice and surgical operation， and explore the positive role of the new teaching mode in the cultivation of students’ theoretical and practical abilities， so as to meet the teaching needs of cultivating high-quality plastic surgery student in the new era.
