SCNHRB copy 39088015006596 is imperfect: The title leaf, preliminaries, pages [1-]24 of the Pathologia, pages [71]-90 of the Therapeutica, and the final [8] pages, are wanting (the volume has been identified through comparison with the digitzed Bibliothèque universitaire de médicine copy).The boards and some of the first section of the volume have been chewed away, but without loss of text. Some leaves have cropped margins, affecting part of the old handwritten notes in ink
