Since its first publication in 1994, Neurotology has stood as the essential reference and educational foundation for clinicians, trainees, and researchers in this rapidly evolving specialty. The third edition continues that legacy, reflecting three decades of scientific discovery, technological innovation, and clinical transformation that have reshaped the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of hearing, balance, the facial nerve, and skull base. Under the leadership of Peter L. Santa Maria, Richard K. Gurgel, and Robert K. Jackler, and with contributions from more than 120 international experts, this edition synthesizes foundational principles with emerging frontiers-from microsurgery and implantable devices to molecular medicine, genomics, computational diagnostics, and regenerative therapies.
