摘要
A generalized decrease in the number of autopsies has been observed in hospitals worldwide, including Chile. A significant number of discrepancies between clinical and pathologic diagnosis persists in spite of the increasing sophistication of diagnostic methods. The teaching value of the autopsy, recognized by students, is stressed. Some lessons obtained in the personal practice of over 4500 autopsies are commented upon. The intimate experience of autopsies practiced in relatives and the speculation upon the attitude of the pathologist himself facing an autopsy are discussed.
