ABSTRACT Human Anatomy, an independent science form the Old Age, has historically evolved in correspondence with the politic, economic and social changes and the technical scientific development.  However, there are still unclear definitions on its special didactics, with different criteria on how to develop the teaching learning process, particularly referring to teaching methods and aids to use; although it is assumed in general the dead body use as a suitable teaching aid, there are different tendencies about it. The authors, through the analysis of several bibliographic sources, made a systematization on the use of teaching aids in the special didactics of Human Anatomy nowadays. It showed that the dead body or prepared anatomic pieces are still the appropriate teaching aid, but it is also important the use of other aids, proposing the consideration of didactic exigencies or regularities like the interaction with several aids that, resembling the anatomical reality, approach to it, process in which they should be guided to establish the connections and relations between organs, the homogeneity and difference according to their structure and systems they take part of, and also the interdependency form-function; for all of that it is important to study the theoretical content interacting with the anatomic observation; it allows to understand and significantly integrate the studied content.
