The present manuscript is a philosophical-explanatory scientific work in which the authors carry out an extensive analysis of the relationship between comparative medicine and One Health concept. Strictly speaking, comparative medicine is made up of those pathological events that we can identify, simultaneously, both in human medicine, as well as in veterinary medicine, and in the conditions offered by the surrounding environment. The element of causation of human and animal pathology is to be found, in most situations, in the surrounding living environment.

  The term comparative medicine is very comprehensive and encompasses the sum total of human and veterinary pathology – the one and only medicine, in a certain local living environment, relying in particular on the specific pathology of zoonoses (transmissible diseases from animals to humans and vice versa) and on the human and animal oncological pathology, namely, comparative.
