Anatomy II

The student should have knowledge on the principals of general and human biology, and previous anatomy concepts (Anatomy I).

As aulas teóricas visam a apresentação detalhada dos conteúdos programáticos. É utilizada uma metodologia expositiva-ativa, apelativa da intervenção direta dos alunos, favorecendo assumidamente uma iconografia abundante em detrimento do ensino meramente teórico-descritivo.

Na vertente teórico-prática privilegia-se a realização de trabalhos práticos, a visualização multimédia, demonstrações em modelos, assistência a autópsias e ensino com órgãos cadavéricos.

A dinamização das aulas utilizará recursos adquiridos no âmbito do projeto Innov2Care.

The student must acquire knowledge on:

– Descriptive and topographic anatomy in different anatomical planes.

– Description and location of anatomical structures according to the international anatomical nomina.

The student should acquire skills and competences of:

– Identifying and describing anatomical structures, considering normal anatomy and its variants.

– Describing anatomical structures for different systems.

– Establishing anatomical spatial correlations.

– Correlating anatomical structures with their function, for further application in a clinical context.

– Upper limb: myology, angiology and innervation

– Lower limb: myology, angiology and innervation

Abdomen and perineum:

– Abdominal wall: skin, fascias, muscles and peritoneum.

– Abdomino-pelvic visceras: esophagus, stomach, liver, gallbladder and biliar tree, pancreas, bowel, rectum and anus, spleen, kidneys, ureter and bladder, adrenal glands, perineum, male and female genitalia.

Anatomy of the neck: fascia, muscles (superficial and deep planes), vascularization and innervation, pharynx, larynx, thyroid, and parathyroid glands

Evaluation methods for this curricular unit include 2 (two) exams during the semester weighted as follows: 35% for theoretical-practical component and 65% for theoretical component. Each exam accounts for 50% of the final grade.

Each component requires a minimum grade of 9.5. To access the theoretical component in each assessment moment, students must achieve the minimum grade in the theoretical-practical component. Similarly, a minimum grade of 9.5 is required in each theoretical test.

Approval to this curricular unit is granted with a mean of 9.5.

Assessment by exam follows the same distribution of weights between the two matrices with the same criteria to access the theoretical component.

In case of a final grade higher than 15, it will be confirmed by an oral test, prevailing the best grade.
