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.

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 absence: two (2x45 min.) Histology and two (2x45 min.) Autopsy practises.

Mid-term exams

The capability of recognising diseases on the basis of gross morphology, interpreting basic clinicopathology and giving differential diagnostics will be examined during the regular autopsy classes of the last (14th) weeks of the second semester. A student whose performance is not found at least satisfactory will get one additional macropreparation during the final exam.
One macropreparation and one histological preparation as well as two theoretical questions will be given to the students during the final examination at the end of the course. The theoretical questions include the entire organ pathology, cardiovascular pathology and pathology of the respiratory tract are included.
