Abstrakt: Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the pre-graduation anatomy training of general surgery residents and to reveal their views and needs regarding anatomy during the specialty training process. Methods: After obtaining the necessary institutional permissions, the questionnaire form prepared using the Google survey application was shared online with physicians from different stages of general surgery speciality training. Participants were asked questions about their demographic characteristics and anatomy training during their undergraduate and specialist training, and all results were statistically analysed. Results: A total of 45 general surgery residents from four different provinces and six different hospitals participated in the research. 77.8% of the participants are male and the mean age is 28.8±2.5. Of the 36 people who stated that cadavers were used in anatomy practice courses, 86.11% stated that only prosection, 8.33% said only dissection, and 5.56% stated that both dissection and prosection methods were used. Anatomy integration should be included in specialty training according to 66.7% of residents. It was determined that senior residents who had completed two years of specialty training found it more necessary to include anatomy integration in this process than those who had not completed it (p=0.044). In addition, it was determined that those who had just started their specialty training needed anatomy-related books and atlases more often than senior residents (p=0.034). Conclusion: This study identifies the importance of anatomy knowledge in general surgery training and also highlights the importance of anatomy knowledge and experience in the integration of training.
