Errata will be updated if I find errors more. (Last updated: 3/26/2015)A conclusionThe renowned bible of pathology is revised enough to be sold under the title of "new edition." Students may stick to the previous edition (not so many changes to influence studying for the USMLE review). The new edition is more recommended unless you have got one. Though this book becomes easier and more student-friendly as new editions come out, students (including me) may still find the big Robbins difficult without a strong background of basic sciences. For the purpose of USMLE review, the baby Robbins is more than enough. However, I believe all doctors(-to-be), regardless of their specialties, should read this big Robbins at least once in their lifetime, not for the board review, but for a better understanding of medicine.Overall changes1. "Key Concepts" summary after each section, which may be useful to students.2. Some tables and figures are revised, most (but not all) of which are better than those from the previous edition.3. "References" → "suggested readings." Updated, selected articles with useful comments (except in Ch26 & 28).4. A briefer, readable text with better editing. Many minor text revisions are geared toward pathogeneses and clinical features rather than morphologies. Frequent use of bullets and bold texts makes the contents clearer and easier to understand.Some of more impressive updatesCh1. A new chapter, parts of whose materials are assembled from several chapters of the previous edition. More coherent discussion of cell & molecular biology.Ch2. New pathways of cell death, necroptosis and pyroptosis. Updated discussions regarding autophagy. Minor text revisions.Ch3. The inflammation chapter and tissue repair chapter are combined. A newly written paragraph on neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). Some primary immunodeficiencies (e.g., leukocyte adhesion deficiency) are moved to the Ch6, and stem cells, extracellular matrix or other stuffs are moved to the Ch1.Ch4. The coagulation cascade in vivo vs. in vitro. Minor text revisions.Ch5. A brief discussion regarding fragile X tremor/ataxia is added to the Fragile X syndrome section. Extensive revisions on "molecular diagnosis." A newly written section on next-generation sequencing (NGS). Several minor & major text revisions throughout the whole textbook accordingly.Ch6.

A new section on primary immunodeficiencies due to defects in innate immunity. A discussion of ataxia-telangiectasia in the context of immunodeficiency.Ch7. Extensive text revisions but following the similar outline as the 8th edition. Descriptions of several important topics (e.g., Hallmarks of cancer, Darwinian selection and progression of tumor cells, oncogene addition and its therapeutic implications, the Warburg effect, cancer stem cells, molecular profiling of tumors, to name a few) are enhanced, while too detailed ones (e.g., the pocket protein family, etc.) are reduced or omitted. Overall, more organized and easier to understand.Ch8. "General principles" part is reorganized. Several minor text reinforcements that reflect recent advances regarding microbial pathogenic mechanisms. A new paragraph on Cryptococcus gattii is added.Ch9. Updated statistics and results from recent studies. A new paragraph on anticoagulants. Enhanced discussion of pathophysiology of obesity.

A new section on complications of transfusion.Ch15. Paragraphs on pathogenesis of many respiratory disorders (e.g., acute lung injury, asthma, lung cancer, etc.) are rewritten or revised, many of whose details are dropped, but come to the point overall. Brief discussions of pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis, lymphangioleiomyomatosis and surfactant dysfunction disorders are added. Other minor text revisions.Ch16. No major changes. Overall text length is cut down. A short paragraph on glossitis is deleted. Minor text revisions.Ch17. A short additional explanation on achalasia. Enhanced discussions of some topics (e.g., gastric injury & protection, molecular pathogenesis of GI tumors, pathogenesis of irritable bowel syndrome, etc.). Minor entities (e.g., uncommon esophageal tumors, Cowden syndrome, Bannayan-Ruvalcava-Riley syndrome, Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, peritoneal cysts) are removed.Ch18. An extensively reorganized introductory section with many additions and revisions on hepatocyte injury and repair, liver failure, and morphologies.

Newly identified molecular lesion in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.Ch25. Text rearrangements to improve readability. Morphologic features of epithelial cysts are omitted.Ch26. Better summary paragraphs and tables. Parts of some arthropathies are curtailed. A small new section on undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS). Several entities (chondroblastoma and chondromyxoid fibroma, myositis ossificans, etc.) are out.Ch27. The anatomically rearranged chapter with many text revisions accordingly. A simplified approach to inheried peripheral neuropathies with detailed discussions being dropped. Several miscellaneous topics are added (e.g., Lyme disease, HIV/AIDS neuropathy, congenital myasthenic syndromes, rare musculodystrophies, etc.). Peripheral nerve sheath tumors are moved from Ch28.Ch28. Frontotemporal dementia → frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD).
