An enhanced edition of the leading book on the subject

Already the most established title in the field, Essential Otolaryngology has been updated to include more decision-making algorithms along with the very latest critical information to help you treat conditions involving the head and neck, such as sinusitis, sensory disorders, cancer, and problems with sleep. You won't find a more comprehensive, expertly written resource on the subject than this brand-new edition of an industry standard.

Unlike competitive titles, which aim to satisfy the needs of either practicing professionals or students, Essential Otolaryngology is a single-volume guide that is suitable for both general review or reviewing for the boards. Among the most important updates is the inclusion of more international contributors, which lends more global perspective to the book. Additional new content includes a new chapter on molecular biology and updated information on the latest cochlear implant technology, hearing aid devices, pharmacotherapy, and chemotherapy. First published in 1973, this portable ENT guide is an essential guide with a proven track record.
