Synopsis

Explore a thorough, illustrated record of lung, stomach, and related pathologies—seen through preserved specimens and expert notes.

This volume provides a carefully curated collection from Guy’s Hospital, detailing morbid conditions of the respiratory organs and the alimentary tract. It is written for students, clinicians, and researchers who want a vivid, hands-on sense of historical pathology and its histological features.

  • See real specimens that illustrate injuries, diseases, and operative findings in the larynx and respiratory tract.
  • Examine stomach and related abdominal lesions, including ulcers, perforations, and their effects on nearby organs.
  • Learn how historical cases were described, diagnosed, and interpreted by pathologists working with museum collections.
  • Understand the scope of late 19th‑century pathology through preserved preparations and accompanying notes.
Ideal for readers of medical history, histology, and early surgical pathology who want a tactile view of disease as documented in a major teaching hospital collection.
