[Certain results of training of physicians-pathologists through internship]

The article discusses the experience in the post-graduate training of medical personnel in pathological anatomy in internship organized at the centralized prosectorium of the Poltava Regional Clinical Hospital. The Base has been found to fulfil its task quite satisfactorily. The centralized prosectorium has been serving a hospital fund amounting to 2755 beds. Annually, over 700 autopsies and 30 000 investigations of operative, bioptic and section materials are being performed in the prosectorium. A close contact of the regional specialist with the regional (oblast) public health department and his personal participation in the oppointment of medical graduates as prosectors are of importance in adequate staffing of medical institutions with prosectors.
