AHL 850 - Surgical Anatomy and Pathology II


4.8 Continuing Education Units (CEU). This course is not for Credit(s).

This course is designed to enable the student to learn about a deeper understanding of human anatomy and the pathologic conditions that might require surgical intervention. This course is the second in a two part series. The student will build on previous knowledge in order to understand the relationships of anatomical structures as they would be identified during surgical procedures. Topics to be covered include a review of anatomy and physiology of specific structures; review of classification and treatment of tumors; pathologic conditions requiring surgical intervention; and the application of anatomical relationships to surgical practice.

 

Course Objectives:

1. recall anatomy and physiology within the following structures of the human body: digestive, lymphatic, endocrine, respiratory, and cardiovascular;
2. recall hemodynamic disorders, tumor classification and treatment, and inflammation and infection;
3. recall the causes and manifestations of the disease process using appropriate terminology;
4. identify surgically treatable disorders and the tests used to diagnose them; and
5. apply critical thinking skills to the anatomy and pathology topics covered as related to surgical practice.
