    AbstractThis paper aims to inform the reader about the procedures of, and the need to run, a bequest programme for the teaching of clinical anatomy. It provides an overview of how the programme operates, and why the Department of Anatomy and Structural Biology at the University of Otago (Dunedin, New Zealand) requires cadavers (bodies). It also looks at the acceptance and restrictions of bequests, and the altruistic nature of those who bequeath themselves to the Department.
