I now have enough information from both books to compile a comprehensive answer. Using the page ranges, content clues from each block, and my knowledge of the Robbins textbooks' chapter structure, here is the full breakdown:
Pathology Books in the Library
The library contains two pathology textbooks. Here are the topics covered in each:
1. Robbins, Cotran & Kumar - Pathologic Basis of Disease (ISBN 9780443264528)
This is the definitive special (systemic) pathology reference. It spans 13 blocks covering pages 17-1225. The chapters/topic groups per block are:
| Block | Pages | Topics / Chapters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 17-117 | General Pathology - The Cell, Genome & Housekeeping; Cell Injury, Death & Adaptations; Intracellular Deposits; Cellular Aging; Inflammation & Repair; Hemodynamic Disorders (Edema, Thrombosis, Embolism, Infarction, Shock) |
| 2 | 118-211 | Hemodynamic Disorders & Immunopathology - Edema, Lymphatic Obstruction, Thrombosis; Diseases of the Immune System (Hypersensitivity, Autoimmunity, Transplantation, Immunodeficiencies, Amyloidosis) |
| 3 | 212-304 | Immunopathology & Neoplasia - Autoimmunity cont'd; Neoplasia - hallmarks of cancer, carcinogenesis, tumor immunity, clinical aspects of tumors |
| 4 | 305-393 | Neoplasia & Genetic Disorders - Chemical/Radiation Carcinogenesis; Genetic and Pediatric Diseases - Mendelian disorders, complex multigenic diseases, cytogenetic disorders, pediatric tumors |
| 5 | 394-486 | Environmental & Nutritional Pathology - Environmental diseases (occupational toxins, metals, air pollutants, radiation); Nutritional diseases (obesity, vitamins, malnutrition) |
| 6 | 487-580 | Blood Vessels - Vasculitis, Atherosclerosis, Hypertension, Aneurysms, Veins & Lymphatics; The Heart - Ischemic heart disease, Cardiomyopathies, Valvular diseases, Arrhythmias, Pericardial diseases, Cardiac tumors |
| 7 | 581-670 | Hematopoietic System - Red cell disorders (Anemias); White cell disorders (Lymphomas, Leukemias, Myelodysplastic Neoplasms, Myeloproliferative Neoplasms); Bleeding disorders; Spleen & Thymus |
| 8 | 671-768 | Lung - Congenital anomalies, Atelectasis, Pulmonary edema, ARDS; Obstructive & Restrictive lung diseases; Infections; Lung tumors; Pleural diseases |
| 9 | 769-869 | Liver, Gallbladder & Pancreas - Hepatic injury patterns; Cirrhosis; Viral hepatitis; Alcoholic & Metabolic liver disease; Liver tumors; Gallbladder disease; Exocrine & Endocrine pancreas |
| 10 | 870-973 | Kidney & Lower Urinary Tract - Glomerular diseases; Tubular diseases; Tubulointerstitial nephritis; Vascular diseases of kidney; Thrombotic microangiopathies; Urolithiasis; Tumors of kidney and bladder |
| 11 | 974-1070 | Genital Tract & Breast - Female genital tract (Vulva, Vagina, Cervix, Uterus, Ovary, Fallopian tube); Breast pathology (Benign lesions, Carcinoma including BRCA1/2 genetics, molecular subtypes) |
| 12 | 1071-1172 | Skin & Endocrine System - Skin disorders (Eczema, Psoriasis, Blistering diseases, Skin tumors including melanoma); Thyroid, Parathyroid, Adrenal, Pituitary, Pancreatic endocrine tumors; Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia |
| 13 | 1173-1225 | Nervous System & Musculoskeletal - CNS trauma, Vascular diseases of the brain, Demyelinating diseases (MS), Neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's), CNS tumors; Bones, Joints, Soft tissue tumors |
2. Robbins & Kumar - Basic Pathology, 10th Edition (ISBN 9780323790185)
A condensed version covering the same ground in 8 blocks (pages 16-897):
| Block | Pages | Topics |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 16-129 | General Pathology - Cell Injury, Inflammation, Repair, Hemodynamic Disorders |
| 2 | 130-235 | Immunopathology & Genetic Disorders - Immune diseases, Chromosomal disorders |
| 3 | 236-343 | Neoplasia - Cancer biology, carcinogenesis, tumor-host interactions |
| 4 | 344-437 | Heart & Blood Vessels - Ischemic heart disease, Cardiomyopathies, Valvular diseases |
| 5 | 438-555 | Hematopoietic System & Lung - Anemias, Leukemias, Lymphomas; Respiratory diseases |
| 6 | 556-676 | GI Tract, Liver & Pancreas - Esophagus through colorectum; Liver diseases; Pancreas |
| 7 | 677-796 | Kidney, Lower Urinary Tract & Male/Female Genital System - Glomerulopathies, Prostate, Breast |
| 8 | 797-897 | Musculoskeletal, Skin & Nervous System - Bones, Joints (Gout, Arthritis), Skin tumors, CNS diseases |
Special pathology (systemic/organ-based pathology) in these books covers diseases organized by organ system: blood vessels, heart, hematopoietic system, lung, GI tract, liver, kidney, reproductive system, breast, endocrine system, skin, bones & joints, and nervous system. General pathology (cell injury, inflammation, repair, neoplasia) forms the foundation in the earlier chapters/blocks of both books.
