In this study, we aimed to systematically examine the theses in the field of anatomy published between 2021 and 2023. The study was conducted by scanning 298 anatomy (medicine) theses published in the National Thesis Search Center between 2021 and 2023. Theses were categorized as master’s, doctoral, and medical specialization theses. These categorized theses were further divided into locomotor system, circulatory system, respiratory system, digestive system, urogenital and endocrine system, nervous system, and others for systematic analysis. The study was divided into five subheadings: experimental, anthropometric, radiological, cadaveric, and clinical. In the findings of our study, it was determined that the majority of anatomy theses were related to the locomotor system, accounting for up to 49%, while the least common were urogenital, endocrine, and respiratory system theses, each at 3%. When examined by years and academic degrees, it was found that the most common theses were related to the locomotor system, followed by the nervous system. As a result, it is expected that this bibliographic analysis will shed light on anatomy master’s students, doctoral students, clinicians, and researchers who are conducting or will conduct various academic studies.
