This book is a wonderful resource for second year medical students taking pathology as well as medical students in their clinical years. It is a good review and highly relevant to what I am seeing in the hospital.
500 USMLE-type questions and answers Detailed explanations for correct and incorrect answers Targets what you really need to know for exam success Student tested and reviewed
The study of pathology, a science so basic to clinical medicine, has been abbreviated sadly in many medical schools in recent years, and that too at a time when explosive growth is occurring in the science. Recent advances in immunopathology, diagnosis of bacterial and viral diseases including AIDS, and detection of infectious agents such as papillomavirus in cervical dysplasia are proceeding at a tremendous rate. The thirteenth edition of Pathology: PreTestTM Self-Assessment and Review includes such new subject areas as predictive values in the interpretation of laboratory data, the importance of cytokines, the molecular basis of genetic and other disease processes, and molecular biology techniques as these apply to lymphopro- liferative disorders and other tumors.
The medical student must feel submerged at times in the flood of information——occasionally instructors may have similar feelings. This edi- tion is not intended to cover all new knowledge in addition to including older anatomic and Clinical pathology. It is, rather, a serious attempt to present important facts about manY disease processes in the hope that the student will read much further in major textbooks and journals and will receive some assistance in passing medical school, licensure, or board examinations.

Index
Chancroid is an acute venereal disease that is characterized by painfulgenital ulcers with lymphadenopathy.It is caused by Hducreyi,a small,gram-negative bacillus.Gram stains of the suppurative lesions or cultureson specialized media may be used to make the diagnosis.Serologic tests arenotuseful.Neisseria gonorrheae,a gram-negative diplococcus,causes gonorrhea,an acute suppurative infection 0f the genital tract.In males it produces apurulent discharge(urethritis)and dysuria.In women.it may be asympto-matic(50%),or it may produce infection of the cervix with accompaningvaginal discharge,dysufia,and abdominal pain.Ascending infections inwomen can iead to salpingitis,tuboovarian abscess,and pelvic inflamma-tory disease(PID).Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome refers to perihepatitis infec-tion.In newborns,infection acquired during birth can produce a purulentconjunctivitis(ophthalmia neonatorum).This disease has been preventeddue to prophylactic therapy to newborn infants.A Gram stain of the ure-thral or cervica[exuciate may reveal the intracytoplasmic gram-negativediplococci,or the exudate can be cultured on special media.
