Abstract:
Surgical skill training using cadavers is important for surgeons to gain an understanding of anatomical approaches. However, the laws and guidelines stipulating surgical technique training using corpses differ in each country. We discuss the new guidelines and the current situation in Japan in comparison with that in Western Europe and the United States.
