Summary

• Description:

  Pathology is the bridge between basic science and real disease, and these 15 pages make that bridge easy to cross. You will learn the four aspects of disease (etiology, pathogenesis, morphology, clinical effects), then move through cell injury (reversible versus irreversible), cellular adaptations (hypertrophy, hyperplasia, atrophy, metaplasia, dysplasia), and cell death — including the five patterns of necrosis and the difference between necrosis and apoptosis. The inflammation section covers the five cardinal signs, acute versus chronic inflammation, and the chemical mediators, followed by a clear account of tissue healing, wound repair, and an introduction to cytology. Six illustration prompts and several exam-style tables support your revision. These notes match the way the KMTC exam is actually written and give you the vocabulary to describe disease accurately.
