Main themes The activity is divided in 10 lectures of one hour each and 10 practicals of two hours each. The cellular adaptative processes, the intra- and extracellular accumulations, the mechanisms of cell death, vascular and circulatory disorders, inflammation, immunity disorders and neoplasia are successively envisaged. Common or exemplative pathologies are used to illustrate the lectures
Aims Study of general pathology integrating the various disease processes: degeneration, altered metabolism, circulatory disorders, inflammation and neoplasia. The educational objectives are to get acquainted with the terminology and to understand the significance of the lesions; to recognize gross and microscopic lesions; to learn how to describe the lesions and the methods for their analysis.
Content Lectures refer to the basic notions of common pathologies regarding cell death (necrosis and apoptosis), cellular and tissue adaptation, intra- and extracellular deposits and overload, inflammation, immunity problems, circulatory disorders and benign and malignant neoplasia. Morphological techniques used to reach a diagnosis are also described.
Other information Knowledge of human histology is required. Evaluation is a written exam including a practical approach with recognition and description of microscopic lesions. A summary of the lectures is available. A textbook of general and systematic pathology is recommended.
