Topic

There is a special emphasis during the course on the clinicopathological view of the diseases, i.e., understanding the relationship of the clinical symptoms, macroscopical and microscopical changes of the diseased organs. By the end of the academic year, a basic clinicopathological affinity and competence in differential diagnosis is required of the students. Fundamentals and major examples of specific, organ pathology are discussed. The systemic pathology course involves the major fields of organ pathology not discussed in Pathology 1: dermatopathology, hematopathology, pathology of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, biliary tract, pancreas, kidney, male and female genital tract, skeletal system, endocrine system and soft tissues pathology. Cardiovascular pathology and pathology of the respiratory tract have been discussed during Pathology 1 course.

The main educational task of the subject:

The pathology course will form the basis for later clinical studies by teaching organ specific pathology knowledge, including the etiology and pathomechanism of diseases and the entire spectrum of pathological diagnostics from macroscopy and microscopy to special ancillary techniques (ultrastructural analysis, molecular pathology) with their clinical relevance.

Notes

Recommended literature

Conditions for acceptance of the semester

Absences exceeding 15% each of the histopathology and autopsy practical classes will result in denial of signing the gradebook. Maximum allowed absence: two 90-minute Histopathology Seminars and two 90-minute Autopsy practises.

Mid-term exams

Recognition of diseases based on gross morphology, interpretation of basic clinicopathology and providing differential will be examined at an autopsy exam on the 12-13th week. A practical grade will be assigned to students, that counts as one part of the final exam. The final exam will consist of five parts: practical grade, one macropreparation, one histological preparation and two theoretical questions. Details of the autopsy exam will be provided at the beginning of the Semester.

Making up for missed classes

Each missed seminar may be made up with another group.
