What is the best method for forensic autopsy dissection? (Virchow, Letulle or Gohn) and what was the point in reference that the Rokinansky method was confused for the Letulle.
In hospital cases were the anatomical orientation is being learned or vital due to the disease the Letulle method is best for the training pathologist. The Virchow and Gohn are more for forensic cases due to anatomical relationships and time saving dissections.
Rokinansky method is an in-situ examination of viscera with removal of notable organs
Virchow method is an organ by organ removal.
Letulle method is the En Mass removal of all the viscera
Gohn method is En Bloc removal of viscera into Thoracic, intestines, Upper abdominal, Lower abdominal, Brain and neck
There is no universal answer. Basically the best method could vary from case to case, depending on the circumstaces. I frequently use a non-standard approach when necessary.

Dear colleagues, concrete autoptic strategy is defined by the case being examined in itself. Which method or protocol is the best one? Simple reply: none. Use the benefits of various approaches, combine them and be creative, be curious and be prepared for everything.
