Summary: | The development of new technologies and tools for teaching anatomy and the high cost of anatomy laboratories have forced a tendency to decrease the use of bodies and practice. However, these are essential for teaching gross anatomy, and their value is indisputable; students can understand anatomy and develop surgical and clinical skills. Our laboratory has been structured in a manner it can cover all student activities, but also be self-sustaining through the implementation of postgraduate courses, host for clinical practices for specialists, and pharmaceutical sponsored courses. The incomes are then re-invested in furthering the laboratory equipment (ultrasound, fluoroscopy, arthroscopy, microsurgery, minimally invasive surgery), to offer a wider range of courses for physicians to expand their knowledge and clinical practice.
