This book offers comprehensive and up-to-date information about propolis and its applications in otorhinolaryngology. Propolis, a natural resin produced by bees, has been shown to possess antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Despite numerous publications discussing its benefits, the authors' goal is to compile scientifically proven data into an academic resource that can aid in further research in the field of propolis and its applications. With a focus on evidence-based information, this volume presents only preclinical and clinical studies, prioritizing proven effects over potential therapeutic benefits.The initial chapters are dedicated to general information on bees, hives, honey, and propolis. The following chapters delve into the antiseptic, antibacterial, antiviral, and antimycotic effects of propolis, followed by more specific discussions on topics such as sinus and pulmonary effects. Other chapters explore the effects of propolis on conditions like rhinosinusitis, nasal blockage, and allergic rhinitis. The final chapter focuses on Anatolian Propolis and its distinct characteristics.Given the rising popularity of propolis, this updated reference should be an essential addition to the libraries of otolaryngologists, head and neck surgeons, general practitioners, and all individuals seeking information to understand the benefits of propolis and its relevance in modern healthcare practices.

This book provides comprehensive and up-to-date general information and evaluation of the diagnostic and therapeutic options available to individuals suffering from neurotologic diseases. Neurotology is a fast-developing area of science. Even fundamental terminology, such as the meaning of vestibular symptoms, has only recently been established due to the rapid development of vestibular research.This volume discusses the fundamental sciences, and the clinical application of treatments in neurotology, as well as the most recent research. It is aimed at assisting physicians in making the most effective judgments regarding the management of care for their patients. Diagnosing patients with vestibular symptoms such as vertigo, dizziness, unsteadiness, and oscillopsia requires consideration of symptoms and indicators of neurotologic illnesses. The majority of diagnoses may be made right at the patient's side. A grasp of important diagnostic concepts is vital for all practicing neurologists, who regularly assess whether such patients merit immediate diagnostic testing or hospital admission.This book emphasizes understanding how to take a focused medical history and perform a thorough physical examination on a patient experiencing vestibular symptoms or suspected of having a neurotologic condition.This up-to-date reference should be part of the collections of all otolaryngologists, head and neck surgeons, audiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and residents interested in providing the best possible care for patients.
