Objectives of the Course

To teach dental students the anatomy of the circulatory, respiratory, digestive, urinary, genital, endocrine systems and central nervous system, including their relationships, functions, and clinical reflections using models and visuals.

Course Content

Anatomical structures of the thorax wall, heart, pericardium and mediastinum, major vessels Anatomy of the lymphatic system and major lymph nodes Structural features of the respiratory system organs (nose, larynx, trachea and lungs) and the diaphragm Anatomy of the digestive system organs (mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, rectum, anal canal) Structure of accessory organs of the digestive system such as liver, bile ducts, pancreas and spleen Anatomical relationships of anterior and posterior abdominal walls, peritoneum and retroperitoneal structures Morphology of urinary system organs (kidney, ureter, bladder and urethra) Detailed anatomical structures and neighborhood relationships of male and female genital system organs Location and environmental connections of endocrine system organs (pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal gland, thymus) Introduction to the central nervous system, anatomy of the medulla spinalis, brainstem, cerebellum, thalamus and hypothalamus Cranial nerves, descending and ascending pathways and basic organization of the autonomic nervous system Surface anatomy of the cerebral hemispheres, cortical areas, white matter structures and vessels Brain ventricles and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation Anatomical structures of the orbit and its contents, auditory organs and sensory pathways Recognizing body structures in cross-sectional planes (axial, coronal, sagittal) Evaluation of the mutual positions of the systems within the scope of topographic anatomy and their clinical reflections

Learning Outcomes
1.Describes the structures of the thorax, heart, mediastinum and lymphatic system at the macroscopic level.
2.Explain the anatomical features of the organs of the respiratory system (nose, larynx, trachea, lungs and diaphragm).
3.Describe the anatomical structure of the digestive system and accessory organs (liver, bile ducts, pancreas).
4.Explain the structure of the urinary system (kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra) organs and establish their connection with the clinic.
5.Explain and compare the structure of the genital system (male and female) organs.
6.Explain the location of the endocrine system organs and evaluate their anatomical relationship with surrounding structures.
7.Describe the anatomical features of the structures of the central nervous system and their connections with sensory-motor pathways.
8.Distinguish anatomical structures on cross-sectional planes and explain the topographic relationships of systems on these planes.
9.Develops interpretation skills by correlating acquired systematic anatomy knowledge with clinical examples.
