Cadaver surgical training and research using donated cadavers in the field of surgery in Japan: an overview of reports from 2012 to 2021

Purpose Subsequent to the publication of “Guidelines for cadaver dissection in education and research of clinical medicine” in 2012, cadaver surgical training (CST) was implemented in various surgical fields across Japan. This article summarizes the recent progress made in the implementation of CST using donated cadavers, and its associated research, focusing on the field of surgery, and discusses its future direction. Methods All reports from 2012 to 2021 registered with the CST Promotion Committee of the Japan Surgical Society were analyzed. There were 292 (24.9%) programs in the field of surgery, including acute care surgery, out of a total of 1173 programs overall. Data were classified by the purpose of implementations and fields of surgery, with subclassification by organ, costs and participation fees. Results CST and its research were introduced in 27 (33.3%) of a total 81 universities. The total number of participants was 5564 and the major (80%) purpose of the program was to advance surgical techniques. When classified by objectives, 65, 59 and 11% were for mastering operations for malignant disease, minimally invasive surgery, and transplantation surgery, respectively. Conclusion CST in the field of surgery is increasing progressively in Japan, but still with disproportionate dissemination. Further efforts are needed to achieve full adoption..
