Corpus In Extremis: Analysing Necrocriticism is the second full-length album by Swedish goregrind/death metal band General Surgery. It was released on 12 March 2009 through Listenable Records.

Exclaim! noted in its review of the album, "The ultra low-end rumbling of ditties like opener "Necronomics" will please the diehard underground gore purist, while the (slight) musicality and structure of "Virulent Corpus Dispersement" prove that these guys actually know what they're doing."
