Contents Knowledge of the main pathological pictures (macroscopic and microscopic) of the human organs with clinical corrrelations.
Reference texts Robbins & Cotran: Pathologic Basis of Disease, last edition available, Elsevier
Educational objectives TRAINING AIMS: 
At the end of the course the student shall be conscious of the contribution provided by Pathological Anatomy to the phisicyan's decisional process, and must be able to use rationally the information derived from histocytopathologic diagnosis in order to perform the best prevention, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of diseases. 
To reach these targets the student: 
1) must demonstrate a good knowledge about gross and histological features of the main human diseases, and must be able to identify them by etiopathogenetic, physiopathologic, clinic, nosographic and epidemiologic points of view. 
2) must know the most important methods used by Pathologist in his work, so that he can suitably manage the materials assigned to histological and cytological exams. The student must also correctly understand histological and cytological diagnosis and be conscious about the collaboration that must exists between the phisicyan and the pathologist. 
Prerequisites In-depth knowledge of anatomy, histology, physiology and general pathology.
Teaching methods Lessons face to face (compulsory), practical training, seminars.
Other information DIDACTIC ORGANIZATION: 
The Pathological Anatomy teaching is carried out during the 4th year (1st  and 2nd semester) of the course. 
The overall credits assigned to Pathological Anatomy are 14. 
The total amount of hours dedicated to lectures (ex cathedra) is 100. 

TEACHERS: 
Prof. Angelo Sidoni (coordinator) 
Dr. Guido Bellezza 
Dr. Rachele Del Sordo 
Learning verification modality ORAL EXAM
At the end of the second semester of the teaching the students who will have achieved the frequency attestation and who will be in rule with propedeutic exams will be admitted to support the Pathologic Anatomy exam after telematical booking .  See web site http://www.med.unipg.it/ccl/
The commission, made up of two members, raises three questions regarding the program. The test, lasting not less than thirty minutes, beginning with the signing of the report. In case of unsatisfactory outcome the student has the right to renounce the continuation of the examination.
The final grade is decided collegially as the average grades obtained in individual questions and after appropriate discussion.

PROFESSIONAL TRAINING 

Pathologic activity in the hospital: 
Divided in small groups and guided by a tutor, the students will visit the "Struttura Complessa di Anatomia e Istologia Patologica" and will take vision of all the activities carried out. Particular attention will be given to the compilation requests for cytologic and histopathologic exams, to the right forward of biological samples and to the fixation of specimens. 

Autopsy demonstration: 
The autopsy is a very important medical act, both under formative and clinical points of view. The availability of autopsies depends on clinical units doctors' requests, therefore we can't preventively plan them. 
Students are invited to attend all available autopsies. During the autopsy the pathologist will interactively show the pathological findings, the relative diagnosis and the relationships between them and the signs and symptoms presented by patient in life. In consideration of the deficiency of autopsies the demonstrative activity will be carried out also through archive and/or informatic support cases. 


ELECTIVE DIDACTIC ACTIVITIES (ADE) 
Exercitations for small groups of students with microscopic demonstrations of cytological and histological specimens of the principal human diseases. 
Attendance to the weekly scientific meetings of the Pathological Anatomy Institute. 
Continuous frequency for preparation of degree thesis.
