Cadaveric anatomy and dissection in surgical training

Journal Title: Turkish Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology - Year 2019, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

Detailed knowledge of anatomy is an essential part of surgical practice. However, there are many drawbacks in anatomy education that make many residents feel inadequate when they start performing surgeries. Cadaveric dissection courses aim to close the gap between the anatomic knowledge and surgical practice. This review focuses on the role of cadaveric dissection on surgical education, and additionally states the panel decision of the Surgical Anatomy and Technologies Association on the proper use of cadavers.
