The book provides a comprehensive overview of the challenges and debates on the diagnosis and treatment of midline neck swellings to clarify some uncertainties, make suggestions for resolving others, and establish strategies for achieving therapeutic success. In addition to information on the surgical anatomy of the neck with particular emphasis on midline cervical regions, and the classification and clinical approach for diagnosis and management of neck swellings, the chapters explore cervical lymphadenopathy, swellings of the submental region, swellings of the hyoid bone region, swellings of the laryngeal/pharyngeal region, swellings of the tracheal region, and swellings of the supra-space of Burns. The last chapter emphasizes the importance of scheduling regular follow-ups as well as patient counselling and education.The volume, enriched with color images and flowcharts, will be a key resource for head and neck surgeons, maxillofacial surgeons, orthopedic surgeons,endocrinologists, oncologists, pediatricians, and clinicians of other specialties as they face the most challenging midline neck swellings and work towards providing each patient with the best possible outcome.

This revised and expanded second edition provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of topics relating to head and neck and endocrine surgery, including: maxillofacial injuries, surgery of the scalp, surgery of the salivary glands, jaw tumors, surgery of the oral cavity (lips, tongue, floor of the mouth, and palate), swellings and ulcers of the face, inflammation in the neck, cervical lymphadenopathy, midline and lateral neck swellings, tumors of the pharynx, and endocrine surgery (thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, suprarenal glands, and neuroendocrine tumors).This second edition also includes additional and detailed chapters on thyroidectomy procedures, thyroid and parathyroid endocrine emergencies, thyroid and parathyroid disease during pregnancy, and thyroid and parathyroid transplantation.The coverage extends beyond surgical indications and procedures to encompass aspects such as anatomy, clinical presentation, and imaging diagnosis. With its clear structure, the book facilitates quick reference and will serve as a valuable tool for practitioners, as well as for upper-level graduate students.

This book provides a comprehensive review of current knowledge on the pathophysiology, diagnostic techniques, and therapeutic strategies for salivary gland disorders.

This textbook covers the key topics in mobility data analysis, including all steps of the data science pipeline illustrated with real-world examples.

This book offers a comprehensive overview of thyroiditis, a group of diseases that often present with similar symptoms, frequently creating a diagnostic challenge in determining the exact etiology. Thyroiditis accounts for approximately 20% of all thyroid diseases and arises from various causes, most commonly autoimmune disorders.Clinical manifestations may include symptoms of hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, with subtle variations depending on the underlying cause. A detailed clinical history and a thorough physical examination are essential for accurate diagnosis.The volume covers anatomy, physiology, and diagnostic investigations of the thyroid gland, along with the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment strategies for different forms of thyroiditis—both autoimmune (e.g., Hashimoto’s disease, de Quervain’s subacute thyroiditis, Riedel’s fibrosing thyroiditis) and non-autoimmune (e.g., acute suppurative thyroiditis, drug-induced thyroiditis, post-operative necrotizing thyroiditis, radiation thyroiditis).Additional chapters address updates in dietary management of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, Hashimoto’s encephalopathy, ophthalmopathy, and associated anxiety and depression.A concluding chapter reviews the latest evidence on surgical management of thyroiditis variants, including indications, operative techniques, and post-operative complications.This book is an invaluable resource for head and neck surgeons, maxillofacial surgeons, otolaryngologists, endocrinologists, oncologists, and trainees involved in the care of patients with inflammatory thyroid lesions.

This book addresses a wide range of topics relating to head and neck and endocrine surgery, including: maxillofacial injuries, surgery of the scalp, surgery of the salivary glands, jaw tumors, surgery of the oral cavity (lips, tongue, floor of the mouth, and palate), swellings and ulcers of the face, inflammation in the neck, cervical lymphadenopathy, midline and lateral neck swellings, tumors of the pharynx, and endocrine surgery (thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, suprarenal glands, and neuroendocrine tumors). The aim is to clearly describe and illustrate how to diagnose and treat diverse conditions in accordance with evidence-based practice. The coverage thus extends beyond surgical indications and procedures to encompass aspects such as anatomy, clinical presentation, and imaging diagnosis. The book has been structured in such a way as to facilitate quick reference. While it is primarily intended for practitioners, it will also be suitable for upper graduate students.
