Case Studies in General and Systematic Pathology Summary

Case Studies in General and Systematic Pathology by Dennis W. K. Cotton

A collection of 60 case studies, each presented as a common clinical problem, with some intriguing titles, including: He's just not himself anymore and My leg gave way. Each case history takes the form of a narrative interrupted by questions with the relevant answers alongside. With its problem-based approach, it helps students appreciate the correct path to diagnosis of the pathological signs and symptoms. An excellent revision companion, each case has a revision box of key topics linked in to the main textbook so the student can refer to it for more details.Although the case studies correspond to chapters in the main textbook (three cases per chapter), the reader approaches each case as they would present in life, symptom-first. Illustrated throughout with full colour gross and histopathological photographs as well as clinical photographs, radiographs and line diagrams, this book has an instant visual appeal and presents the subject in a refreshing and innovative way. Features: * Excellent vaue for money * Mirrors real life and reflects the way pathology is taught -- case-based and problem-oriented * Fun to read * An excellent complement to the bestselling main textbook * Cross-references to the main text make it perfect for learning and revision * Teaches the pathological significance of clinical signs -- a key part of learning clinical examination and medicine
