This course will include information regarding the clinical presentations, diagnostic approach and treatment of allergic, infectious, autoimmune and immune-mediated skin diseases of small animals. Prerequisites Only students with the major code VM Co-requisites No Rationale and Placement in Curriculum Offered in Fall for 4th year students in advanced didactic courses. Course Objectives The specific objectives are for the students to become familiar with a problem based approach and learn how to approach cases in a logical step-by-step manner both in terms of diagnosis and management. Additional objectives are to provide the students with knowledge on the pathogenesis and clinical signs of skin diseases of dogs and cats that are encountered in clinical practice and were not addressed in the core dermatology course (VEM 5387). Besides providing lectures, this course also provide opportunities for case discussion in which 3 instructors (Drs. Santoro, Gram and Marsella) will encourage students to participate in discussing clinical cases. This approach has the aim to encourage application of knowledge and open discussion of the pros and cons of different approaches that could be taken on various clinical cases. There will be no laboratory time in this course. By the end of the coursework, the student will be able to explain the necessary types of diagnostic tests and the reasons for performing them when evaluating your patients. The student will be able to discuss pros and cons of different therapy approaches for various diseases and customize the recommendations to individual cases.
