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.

This fully revised and expanded second edition provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of nasal physiology and pathophysiology. With the help of numerous tables, schematic drawings, and color photographs, it helps readers gain a better understanding of the impact of structural changes and the process of disease development, and to make treatment decisions. Each chapter has been written by a leading expert in the field and addresses one important aspect in an accessible way. Covering all four functions of the nose: respiration, defense, olfaction and cosmesis, the book discusses the various techniques for the clinical evaluation of nasal function as well as current trends and future directions in nasal physiologic research. This second edition also includes additional chapters on rhinomanometry, local nasal inflammation, T cells and B cells, and artificial intelligence for the nose. Given its scope, the book is a valuable resource for both experienced otorhinolaryngologists and novices in the field.

This fully revised and expanded second edition provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of nasal rhinitis polyposis, a condition that not only decreases patients’ quality of life, but also affects the connections between the upper and lower respiratory tract, making its treatment of critical importance.

New research findings, as well as new technical innovations, have changed the conventional medical and surgical approaches to the treatment of nasal polyposis, which has resulted in significant advances in the management of the disease.

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.
