“…For this reason, it is important to study previously with cadaveric specimens. Therefore, prior knowledge of structures such as sulcus, gyrus, and ventricles structures such as sulcus, gyrus, and ventricle elements and their relations with supratentorial and deep anatomic structures help the neurosurgeon to plan the best corridors to treat neurosurgical conditions ( 2 , 3 ).…”

“…This is a priority because new specimens are rarely available in most laboratories around the world. Therefore, guiding the dissection and preparation of these specimens are very important with the purpose of showing the largest number of structures as possible, with minimal damage to the piece ( 3 ).…”

Neurosurgical training outside the operating room has become a priority for all neurosurgeons around the world. The exponential increase in the number of publications on training in neurosurgery reflects changes in the environment that future neurosurgeons are expected to work in. In modern practice, patients and medicolegal experts demand objective measures of competence and proficiency in the growing list of techniques available to treat complex neurosurgical conditions. It is important to ensure the myriad of training models available lead to tangible improvements in the operating room. While neuroanatomy textbooks and atlases are continually revised to teach the aspiring surgeon anatomy with a three-dimensional perspective, developing technical skills are integral to the pursuit of excellence in neurosurgery. Parapharsing William Osler, one of the fathers of neurosurgical training, without anatomical knowledge we are lost, but without the experience and skills from practice our journey is yet to begin. It is important to constantly aspire beyond competence to mastery, as we aim to deliver good outcomes for patients in an era of declining case volumes. In this article, we discuss, based on the literature, the most commonly used training models and how they are integrated into the treatment of some surgical brain conditions.

“…Therefore, obtaining a number of high‐quality brain specimens remains a priority (Mattos et al, 2008; Rae et al, 2016). For some institutions, this occurs during a gross anatomy course upon removal of the brain which allows students direct visualization of the cranial vault, the superior orbital region, and the brain itself.…”

Brain dissection is typically an important part of teaching neuroscience in health professional programs. This results in the need to effectively remove brains, which is often performed in a gross anatomy laboratory in the same curriculum. The aim of this study was to determine the most effective method of brain removal based on the time required for removal, difficulty of removal, and preservation of key brain structures for educational purposes. Six different dissectors performed each of the three calvaria removal approaches and three different spinal cord transection methods rating them for difficulty and tracking the time required. The combination of calvaria and brainstem approaches and the order of completion was randomized to control for fatigue and previous individual experience. After all brains were removed, each was evaluated by neuroscience faculty for utility in education contexts. The study found little difference between the individual approaches for both calvaria removal and spinal cord transection in regards to quality of outcome. The use of a circumferential cut only proved to be the most time‐effective method for calvaria removal while a posterior cut between C1 and C2 was the most time‐effective and least difficult method for brainstem release. There was no one technique that proved to be most beneficial across all three measures. However, different approaches resulted in a different combination of benefits across the time, difficulty, and outcome ratings that should be considered in light of the individual needs of any program or researcher.

Além de trazer grandes desafios para os estudantes dos cursos de saúde, outras situações podem comprometer o dia a dia desta modalidade de aula, como a dificuldade de obtenção de corpos cadavéricos, imperícia técnica para manuseio e manutenção do acervo anatômico, como peças processadas sem nenhuma técnica de preservação de estruturas (RODRIGUES, 2005;MATTOS et al, 2008). Na tentativa de suprir a escassez de material cadavérico, meios alternativos são utilizados constantemente no ensino da neuroanatomia, como livros, textos, atlas, modelos sintéticos, modelos anatômicos confeccionados, roteiros de aulas práticas, peças teatrais, uso de redes sociais, softwares, exames de imagem e laboratório digital (ALVES DA SILVA; LIMA E SILVA; SOUZA,2001;NOBESCHI, 2010;JAFFAR, 2012;JAFFAR, 2014;SILVA JÚNIOR et al, 2014a;SILVA JÚNIOR et al, 2014b;SHOEPE et al, 2015).…”

RESUMO:A neuroanatomia, disciplina que estuda as estruturas que compõem o Sistema Nervoso, é complexa, gerando dificuldades em seu processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Em seu ensino, aulas práticas integram as teóricas, utilizando cadáveres, materiais sintéticos e confeccionados. Estes últimos auxiliam a compreensão dos conteúdos, porém de forma segmentada. Buscar a integração funcional é uma importante ferramenta pedagógica em sua aprendizagem. Assim, o objetivo do estudo foi confeccionar um modelo neuroanatômico humano funcional alternativo para as aulas práticas da disciplina de
