Objectives: To synthesise the applied clinical anatomy of gastrointestinal vascular supply with emphasis on watershed zones, circumferential perfusion patterns, and mechanisms of vascular compromise. The review aims to provide surgeons and clinicians with a practical, anatomically grounded framework for understanding perfusion vulnerability, intraoperative decision-making, and the pathophysiology of ischemic injury.

Design: Narrative review…

Background: Only 24.4% of students engaged in hands-on dissections, 42.7% observed, and 31.7% relied on manuals. Some cadavers are incompletely dissected, a need for a deeper understanding of medical students’ perceptions and the underlying cause of these behaviors with an of improving engagement and optimizing learning outcomes.

Methods: A qualitative study was conducted with first- and second-year medical students at Makerere University. Data were collected through focus group…
