  10. LECTURE ONE : Pathology and pathogenesis of bronchial asthma. OBJECTIVES: At the end of this lecture, the student should be capable of: A] Understanding asthma as an episodic, reversible bronchoconstriction caused by increased responsiveness of the tracheobronchial tree to various stimuli. B] Knowing that asthma is divided into two basic types: extrinsic or atopic allergic and intrinsic asthma. C] Understanding the morphological changes seen in the lungs in cases of severe asthma.

  11. CONTENTS: 1] Definitions of asthma as one of the chronic obstruction airway diseases. 2] Types and pathogenesis of extrinsic (immune) asthma and extrinsic (non-immune) asthma. 3] Clinical presentation and pathological changes seen in the bronchial tree in cases of asthma. 4] Complications of asthma: superimposed infection, chronic bronchitis and pulmonary emphysema. 5] Definition and manifestations of status asthmaticus.

  12. LECTURE TWO: : Chronic obstructive airway diseases: chronic bronchitis, emphysema and bronchiectasis. OBJECTIVES: At the end of this lecture, the students should be able to: A] Understand that this group of disorders is characterized by an increase in resistance to airflow, owing to partial or complete obstruction at any level of the bronchial/bronchiolar. B] Know that the major obstructive disorders are chronic bronchitis, emphysema, asthma and bronchiectasis. C] Is aware that the symptom common to all these disorders is "dyspnea" (difficulty in breathing) but each have their own clinical and anatomical characteristics. D] Chronic bronchitis and emphysema almost always coexists.

  13. CONTENTS: 1] Chronic bronchitis: definition, clinical presentation, role of cigarette smoking and air pollution, pathological changes and complications with special emphasis on corpulmonale. 2] Emphysema: definition and clinical characteristics. Types of emphysema including centrilobular emphysema, panacinar emphysema (deficiency of alpha one antitrypsin), paraseptal and irregular emphysema. 3] Complications of emphysema with special emphasis on interstitial emphysema and pneumothorax. 4] Bronchiectasis: definition, predisposing factors, kartagener's syndrome (primary ciliary dyskinesia) and pathological features of bronchiectasis.

  14. LECTURE THREE: Restrictive lung diseases.
