Ear, Nose and Throat for Medical Students: A Case Based Approach is a novel guide aimed at improving your knowledge of common otolaryngology disorders as well as your clinical and diagnostic skills. The content provides a valuable aide for medical students preparing for written finals and OSCE based examinations. The book will also be of interest to GPs wishing to revise their ENT knowledge, and junior doctors starting their first ENT job.

The questions also provide an opportunity to acknowledge the use and importance of investigations and devising treatment plans. Finally, a challenging 'Additional questions' section has been added on to several cases to complete the learning by asking potential viva questions regarding relevant basic science and pathophysiology. The simple-to-read layout and abundance of clinical pictures ensures easy recall of information during outpatient practice and examinations.

Ear, Nose and Throat surgery is a specialty that is often inadequately covered in Medical Schools worldwide and very few junior doctors encounter it during foundation training or internship. As a result, there is always a sense of anxiety and a feeling of entering the unknown when junior doctors, such as core surgical trainees, GP trainees, Foundation and Emergency doctors see patients with ENT conditions requiring urgent care. Currently, there is no concise guide book to address this fundamental issue without subjecting the reader to hours and hours of trawling through lengthy didactic text. With this in mind, and utilising the principles of Pointillism, the authors have put together an excellent succinct guide. The book is divided into five chapters, each consisting of urgent care conditions pertaining to (1) Ear, (2) Nose and Bronchus, (3) Throat and Oesophagus, (4) Neck and Head or (5) Complications of Treatment. All the essential information is clearly provided in 5 logical management steps: history, examination investigation(s), treatment and follow-up. Additional relevant points, tables and figures are provided to further enhance your understanding and retention of the subject matter. Like the previous two books from ENT TZAR team, this guide is lavishly illustrated with clinical photographs to optimise learning and confidence to deal with the challenges of managing urgent care conditions in Otolaryngology.

Surgical pathologists play a central role in patient surveillance and treatment by surgeons, radiation oncologists, and medical oncologists. Although salivary gland tumors are uncommon overall, their histopathologic diversity and challenge command the attention of practicing surgical pathologists. Atlas of Salivary Gland Pathology focuses on the diagnostic approach to salivary gland neoplasia-one of the more challenging fields within surgical pathology-emphasizing the need to understand downstream implications with respect to patient surveillance and treatment. The presence of formidable histologic mimicry in salivary gland neoplasia is well-documented in the pathology literature and has also been observed in the consultation practice of the volume editor. This textbook is designed with the needs of practicing surgical pathologists and pathologists-in-training in mind, providing a comprehensive overview of both common and rare salivary gland neoplasms. The primary educational objectives for readers include the following: 1) distinguish benign from low-grade malignant salivary gland neoplasms, 2) effectively use histochemical, immunohistochemical, and cytogenetic studies in challenging cases, 3) understand which diagnoses merit additional surgery and/or adjuvant therapy (radiation, chemotherapy), and 4) enhance pathologist-to-clinician communication in the setting of salivary gland disease.
