Medicine type

Good question. Here’s what is generally not included in Harrison’s Internal Medicine:

Oral and facial complex details: (Teeth, gums, jaw bones, temporomandibular joint, oral mucosa diseases in detail.)

Detailed dermatology: (Only systemic manifestations of skin disease are briefly covered. Not detailed clinical dermatology.)

Surgical techniques and operative details: (No detailed general surgery, orthopedic surgery, ENT surgery, neurosurgery, etc.)

Obstetrics and Gynecology: (Very minimal — only when systemic illnesses overlap with pregnancy.)

Pediatrics: (Childhood-specific diseases are not emphasized; it focuses mostly on adults.)

Psychiatry in depth: (Only medical aspects like delirium, dementia, depression in illness are discussed — no full psychiatric management.)

Orthodontics, Prosthodontics, Endodontics: (Complete dental specialities are missing.)

Ophthalmology detailed treatments: (Only systemic disease impact on the eyes is discussed; pure eye diseases are not detailed.)

ENT (Ear, Nose, Throat): (Except if it relates to systemic disease like Wegener’s granulomatosis.)

Anatomy, Physiology, Histology basics: (Presumed already known — only clinical application.)
