my daughter, Jennifer; and my mother, Mary LPG To my grandchildren, Nathan David, James Mallary, Hanna Elisabeth, Alexandra Renate, Eric James, and Elise Victoria JLH This page intentionally left blank Preface Once again, we are gratified to release a new histology textbook, one that is based on the third edition of our Color Textbook of Histology, a well-established textbook not only in its original language but also in several other languages In the past three decades, histology has evolved from the purely descriptive science of microscopic anatomy to a composite study integrating functional anatomy with both molecular and cell biology This new textbook is designed in an unusual manner in that each even-numbered page tells the story in words and the facing odd-numbered page illustrates the textual story by beautiful four-color illustrations that are borrowed from the third edition of our Color Textbook of Histology Therefore, each set of facing pages may be thought of as individual learning units To demonstrate the relevance of the information presented to the health professions, almost every learning unit is reinforced by clinical considerations pertinent to the topic Students and faculty alike will, no doubt, note the absence of photomicrographs and electron micrographs in Concise Histology We made a deliberate decision to exclude that material from the hard copy and to place it, instead, on the Student Consult website that is associated with this book We did that to reduce the size of the book, thereby making life easier for the student who has to learn material that a decade ago was taught in 16 weeks and currently is done so in perhaps half that time Student Consult houses not only all the illustrations located on the right side of the facing pages of the book but also 150 photomicrographs and electron micrographs, identified by chapter, with appropriate examination questions and the answers to those questions so that the student can test his or her ability not only to recognize the organs/tissues/cells in question but also their functional characteristics Included on Student Consult are clinical scenarios with appropriate USMLE I-type questions that not only further demonstrate the relevance of histology to the health sciences but also prepare medical students for the histology component of the boards The designs of the hard copy of this textbook, as well as that of the ancillary web-based material, intend to highlight the essential concepts underlying our presentation of histology, namely that there is a close relationship between structure and function Although we have made every effort to present a complete and accurate account of the subject matter, we realize that there are omissions and errors in any undertaking of this magnitude Therefore, we continue to encourage and welcome suggestions, advice, and criticism that will facilitate the improvement of future editions of this textbook Leslie P Gartner James L Hiatt v This page intentionally left blank Acknowledgments Histology is a visual subject; therefore, excellent graphic illustrations are imperative For that we are indebted to Todd Smith for his careful attention to detail in revising and creating new illustrations We also thank our many colleagues from around the world and their publishers who generously permitted us to borrow illustrative materials Finally, our thanks go to the project team at Elsevier for all their help, namely Kate Dimock, Barbara Cicalese, Lou Forgione, and Carol Emery We also thank Linnea Hermanson for her painstaking effort in the production of this text book vii This page intentionally left blank Contents   Introduction to Histology   Cytoplasm   Nucleus 26   Extracellular Matrix 40   Epithelium and Glands 48   Connective Tissue 62   Cartilage and Bone 74   Muscle 94   Nervous Tissue 108 10 Blood and Hematopoiesis 132 11 Circulatory System 152 12 Lymphoid (Immune) System 168 13 Endocrine System 188 14 Integument 204 15 Respiratory System 218 16 Digestive System: Oral Cavity 230 17 Digestive System: Alimentary Canal 238 18 Digestive System: Glands 250 19 Urinary System 260 20 Female Reproductive System 272 21 Male Reproductive System 286 22 Special Senses 304 Index 325 ix Table 10.4  LEUKOCYTES: FEATURES, CATEGORIES, AND FUNCTIONS Features Neutrophils Granulocytes Eosinophils Basophils Lymphocytes No./mm3 % WBCs Diameter (µm)  Section  Smear Nucleus Specific granules Contents of specific granules 3500–7000 60–70 150–400 2–4 50–100
