But it was the time when Anatomy used be taught as ‘only Anatomy’. My learned renowned teachers had been very caring to teach all these details to us. I have experienced that while asked in examination, marks were divided for enumeration of the structures related to lateral aspect of palatine tonsil starting from paratonsillar vein (of great clinical significance) up to ramus of mandible(!). I still remember my memorable days as a student of 1st professional MBBS (1st MBBS) course, when my esteemed and respected teachers, as stalwarts in the field of anatomy, used to be satisfied only after getting answers of the questions like, what are the structures passing through canaliculus innominatus (not foramen ovale!) or what are the structure punctured, in order from superficial to deep, if a deep pin-prick is made at the apex of femoral triangle. During the long journey of my teaching experience for more than 40 years, I had the opportunity to notice the metamorphosis of my subject, Anatomy.
