Title: Pathology Case Study: Disorientation in a 43-Year-Old Woman with Cirrhosis
Url: https://path.upmc.edu/cases/case13.html
Creator: Nine, Jeff S.
Publisher: University of Pittsburgh. Dept. of Pathology
Description: This is a case study presented by the University of Pittsburgh Department of Pathology in which a woman with alcoholic cirrhosis and a progressive history of weakness on her right side fell four weeks ago. Visitors are given both the microscopic and gross descriptions, including images, and are given the opportunity to diagnose the patient. This is an excellent resource for students in the health sciences to familiarize themselves with using patient history and laboratory results to diagnose disease. It is also a helpful site for educators to use to introduce or test student learning in neuropathology.
