Human Anatomy
(objectives)
At the end of the course the student must be able to: describe the structures composing the human body using the correct anatomical terminology; know the organization of the body regions, the macro and microscopic structure of the organs and the relationships between them; be able to use the knowledge acquired during the course to study disciplines that illustrate the functional aspects of the human body.

(syllabus)
HEAD AND NECK - Main palpable and imaging features of the skull and cervical region of the spine. - Macroscopic/microscopic anatomy of head and neck regions with skeletal and muscular systems, neurovascular, venous networks and lymphatic drainage of: cranial fossae, external surface of the skull, oral cavity and tongue, tonsils, soft palate, pharynx, salivary glands, larynx and trachea, thyroid and parathyroid glands, contents of the carotid sheath, ear and pharyngotympanic tube, eyes, eyelids and conjunctiva, nasal cavities and paranasal sinuses, upper airways, description of the fasciae and fascial spaces of the neck and the lymphatic drainage pathways with clinical references. - Surface anatomy: territories of distribution of the cranial nerves, location and functions of the muscles of the head and neck and their innervation, landmarks with particular attention to interventional procedures and to the vascular segments most exposed to damage and accessible by objective examination and techniques of Doppler ultrasound, in addition to venous access points.
BACK - Topographic anatomy; skeletal structure: vertebrae, intervertebral foramina, posterior spaces between the vertebral arches, curvatures of the vertebral column, joints: joints between the vertebrae, ligaments (anterior and posterior longitudinal ligaments, yellow, supraspinatus, nuchal, interspinous). - Back musculature with only nomenclature of the structures of the superficial, intermediate and deep planes and general information on the thoracolumbar fascia. - Spinal cord: Blood vessels, meninges, details on the organization of the meningeal and nerve structures in the spinal canal, spinal nerves.
UPPER LIMB Anatomy of the region. - Shoulder (bones, joints, muscles, main vessels and nerves). The armpit and its contents. - Arm (bones, muscles, vessels and nerve, elbow). - Forearm (bones, joints, muscles, vessels and nerve). - Hand (bones, joints, wrist, muscles, vessels and nerve).
LOWER LIMB Anatomy of the region. - The hip (bony pelvis, proximal femur, hip joint, vessels and nerves). Gluteal region (with extremely superficial notes on: vessels and nerves). - Thigh (bones, muscles, vessels and nerves, knee joint, popliteal fossa). - Leg (bones, joints, compartments - anterior, posterior and lateral). - Foot (bones, joints, tarsal tunnel, retinacles and arrangement of the main structures in the ankle region, arches and plantar aponeuroses, vessels and nerves).
