Annotation

Topographical anatomy deals with mutual relations of structures and organs. Contents: topographical spaces, the orbit, structure of the skin and its derivatives, superficial and deep regions of the head and neck. Thoracic regions, superficial projection of the thoracic organs, abdominal regions and organ projection. Peritoneal cavity and extraperitoneal spaces. Topography of the pelvis and perineal region. The back and the vertebromedullary topography. Topography of the extremities.

In the practical part the students should acquire the skills of dissection and macroscopic identification of the structures and organs of the human body.
