Dissection versus Prosection: A Comparative Assessment of the Course Experiences, Approaches to Learning, and Academic Performance of Non‐medical Undergraduate Students in Human Anatomy

Anatomical Sciences Education, 2020
Many institutions rely upon prosection‐based laboratories as more resource‐efficient and time‐effective alternatives to traditional cadaver dissection for human anatomy education. To facilitate growing enrollment numbers despite resource limitations, the

The Medical Treatment of Dissecting Aortic Aneurysms

New England Journal of Medicine, 1972
Abstract Medical treatment of a group of 33 patients with dissecting aortic aneurysms resulted in 17 survivors (52 per cent) with a mean follow-up period of 43 months. In-hospital survival was influenced favorably by the presence of a subacute or chronic dissection (onset of symptoms 14 days or longer before presentation for treatment) although long ...

Medical malpractice litigations involving aortic dissection

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2022
Medical malpractice litigation arises when a discrepancy exists between a patient's expectation of acceptable medical care and the care the patient receives. Aortic dissection is a frequently misdiagnosed and often-fatal condition. The purpose of this study was to characterize trends of medical malpractice litigations arising from aortic dissection ...

Keeping dissection alive for medical students

Anatomical Sciences Education, 2009
AbstractTraditional dissection teaching is being reduced in a number of medical schools, particularly in the United Kingdom. In response to this, 12 medical students from Warwick University, UK, traveled to the Island of Grenada for an intensive extracurricular dissection course at St. George's University.

Attitudes of medical and dental students to dissection

Clinical Anatomy, 2003
AbstractGuy's, King's, and St. Thomas's School of Medicine encourages students to learn anatomy from human dissection. Today, there is a worldwide move of anatomy‐based teaching away from dissection to prosection. This study investigates how attitudes toward dissection vary with gender and ethnicity.

Medical aspects of acute aortic dissection.

Seminars in thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 1991
A ortic dissection, with a frequency of more than 2,000 new cases per year in the United States, is the most common catastrophic illness involving the aorta. Since the introduction of definitive surgical therapy by DeBakey et al in 1955,’ and of medical therapy by Wheat et al in 1965,’ there has been a dramatic improvement in the prognosis of patients ...

Attitudes to anatomy dissection in an Irish medical school

Clinical Anatomy, 2009
AbstractMany studies around the world have looked at the stresses placed on medical students by cadaveric dissection. Although these studies have linked the use of cadavers in medical teaching to stress, some investigations have suggested an association with severe psychological stress and even post‐traumatic stress disorder.

Effects of cadaver dissection on the attitudes of medical students

Medical Education, 1994
A study was conducted to determine whether the attitudes of medical students to death and caring changed during the 3 months following exposure to cadaver dissection. All first-year students were invited to complete a questionnaire immediately before their initial cadaver dissection experience, after 6 weeks, and after a further 3 months.

How does Donor Dissection Influence Medical Students' Perceptions of Ethics? A Cross‐Sectional and Longitudinal Qualitative Study

Anatomical Sciences Education, 2019
The contribution of donor dissection to modern anatomy pedagogy remains debated. While short‐term anatomy knowledge gains from dissection are questionable, studies suggest that donor dissection may have other impacts on students including influencing ...

Anxiety among Medical Students when Faced with the Practice of Anatomical Dissection

Anatomical Sciences Education, 2018
Practical training in the dissection of human cadavers is a fundamental and traditional component of human anatomy education in medical schools. This practice, however, can be stressful for students and can generate a certain amount of anxiety.
