This revised and expanded second edition provides a comprehensive
and up-to-date pictorial overview of the majority of ENT
conditions. When making a diagnosis, it is of paramount importance
that the ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialist views the lesion and
recognizes its pathology. Recent advances in endoscopic technology
have enabled us to obtain clear images of such lesions and have
changed our approach to diseases and techniques in the fields of
ENT and head and neck surgery. Featuring schematic drawings to make
difficult topics more understandable, the book supports beginners
in their search for the correct diagnosis, and increases their
understanding of basic surgical approaches. It provides fundamental
information required for diagnosis and treatment in an easily
accessible form, while the tables, photographs and schematic
drawings allow readers to grasp the problems quickly. It is also a
useful guide for all experts involved in teaching diagnostic and
surgical skills. Diagnosis in Otorhinolaryngology 2nd Edition is
intended for general practitioners, medical students and ENT
trainees, fellows, academicians and teachers.
In preparing the material for this book, I took the advice of my
students who generously shared their views and opinions with me. I
was told that it would be preferable to have images of the various
diseases with legends describing the disease. Students would be
able to learn and retain the inf- mation more successfully if the
material was accompanied by pictures and schematic drawings. Recent
advances in technology have made it possible to photograph regions
that are difcult to view with the naked eye, such as the ear, nose,
throat, nasopharynx, and larynx - all the areas of
otorhinolaryngology. Such an illustrated text in this feld is
important and necessary for teaching purposes. In this book I tried
to compile images of the basic conditions that are commonly seen in
general practice and to give the reader a visual survey with a
brief description of the condition. I added tables and schematic
drawings in order to provide practical information. It is not the
purpose of this book to be a comprehensive textbook, since many
textbooks are already available with more detailed information of
the conditions illustrated here. This book is primarily intended
for medical students, family and general practitioners, and ENT
trainees. It may also serve as basic reading material for those in
allied specialties. I hope my colleagues fnd this book useful and
it contributes toward their teaching purposes.
As technology advances, practicing or training otolaryngologists
register in educational courses to refresh their surgical skills
and stay abreast of these changes. While information is becoming
available in several journals, there is a definite need for a
single surgical atlas-like book that contains precise descriptions
of the surgical techniques used in rhinology and sleep apnea
surgery. Each chapter was written by surgeons with extensive
experience in each topic who have already published on the specific
procedure described. Each chapter contains diagrammatic or
illustrative descriptions of surgical techniques and provides tips
and pearls of wisdom to avoid complications when the procedures are
performed. This comprehensive work of surgical information serves
as a valuable resource for otolaryngologists in training to augment
their surgical education and for practicing otolaryngologists as a
review source to best approach the surgical pathologies they
encounter in their practice of rhinology and treatment of sleep
apnea.
