Abstract
Clinical relevance of theoretical knowledge is advantageous to be demonstra ted early during preclinical education in medical schools. We describe a ne w way for anatomists and surgeons of teaching anatomy together during surgi cal procedures in the operating theatre, thus demonstrating sucessfully the need of hen insight in the field of gross anatomy. The students reported t o be motivated to learn anatomy. A questionnaire war; completely answered b y 24 students after having finished the 96/97 course of anatomy in the oper ating theatre. The students reported that they have learned a lot as well a s to he highly motivated to continue their efforts of gaining knowledge on the field of gross anatomy because of its clinical relevance.
