In the fourth installment of the manual, we address examining the thoracic cavity organs.

In the first two installments, we covered necropsy in lateral decubitus. In this third installment, we will look at necropsy in the supine position

In this second installment, we cover extracting the tongue, trachea, lungs, and heart in one piece. We will extract the organs of the abdominal cavity, both the digestive system and the urinary and genital tracts. In the head, we will access the nasal turbinates, brain, and cerebellum.

This new section, coordinated by the pathological anatomy team of the University of Cordoba, Spain, will show us, in a very visual and practical way, how to perform a necropsy on a pig.
