UNSOLVABLE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ANATOMY AND HUMAN CADAVER: A BURDEN OR A BOON IN DISGUISE TO TEACH COMPENTENCIES IN MEDICAL CURRICULUM

The upcoming changes, trends and progress in medical science have probably modified the dissection of human cadaver in Anatomy teaching curriculum. The new computerized teaching aids are on the increase to capture the dissection hall and replace the hall from its beloved first medical teacher. We in this present manuscript try to put forth the various aspects of cadaveric human dissection from its inception including the bioethical aspects and opinions of published literature review. The traditional dissection tool as a teaching learning method of Anatomy should not be harassed and should be always considered as the most novel method of discussing human Anatomy for the medical fraternity. The current acute shortage of qualified Anatomy teaching faculty have been a challenge but may be adequately taken care by creating additional incentives, research grants and optimum encouragement for post graduate medical Anatomy teachers including doctoral fellows to teach and compensate for faculty who are aptly required for the upcoming next generation medical students.
