Atlas Of Endoscopic Laryngeal Surgery

Atlas of Endoscopic Laryngeal Surgery is a valuable resource for physicians providing practical information on microscopic surgery of the larynx. Beginning with an introduction to the basic principles and procedures, the text goes on to discuss benign and malignant lesions of the larynx, neurogenic disorders and laryngeal trauma. Almost 400 images, including previously unpublished intra-operative photographs help guide clinicians through the different conditions and types of surgery.

Specializing in viewing of vocal fold vibration, strobolaryngoscopy is a valuable tool for laryngologists and speech-language pathologists in diagnosis of pharyngolaryngeal diseases. This book presents 300 high-quality images and 18 videos from selected representative cases, which help practitioners to grasp the key diagnostic points of srobolaryngoscopy quickly. By watching the videos, readers can observe the vibratory characteristics of vocal folds in details. The book is presented in two parts: The first part is the overview of the strobolaryngoscopy, and the second part focuses on the strobolaryngoscopic signs of common pharngolaryngeal diseases. With the illustrative figures and videos, this book is a practicable reference to laryngologists and speech pathologists.

Phonomicrosurgery is a procedure done through an endoscope to maintain, restore, or enhance the human voice. This atlas is a guide to phonomicrosurgery for ENT surgeons. Beginning with an overview of vocal cord anatomy, the next chapters discuss the principles of phonomicrosurgery and microlaryngoscopy for phonomicrosurgery. The following sections explain the diagnosis and surgical techniques for the treatment of different laryngeal disorders, with tips and tricks for various scenarios and advice on safety measures when using lasers and anaesthesia. The text is accompanied by nearly 1000 clinical photographs and figures depicting laryngeal disorders and phonomicrosurgical procedures. Key points Practical guide to phonomicrosurgery for ENT surgeons Provides detailed description of vocal cord anatomy and principles of phonomicrosurgery Covers diagnosis and surgical techniques for various laryngeal disorders Features nearly 1000 clinical photographs and figures

This unique, richly illustrated atlas offers a “how-to” reference guide to the most common and innovative endoscopic surgical procedures for the middle and inner ear, based on an ex vivo ovine model. Moreover, it compares this model to the same approaches in humans, underlying the essential surgical tips and tricks. The transcanal endoscopic approach for the management of middle and inner ear pathologies is being increasingly used, but in some countries the lack of human specimens makes adequate training in this field difficult: in response, the book introduces a novel method performed on the animal model, which allows trainees to improve their skills, while reducing the cost of surgical training. It provides a full description of specimen preparation, and comparative anatomical and radiological analyses of the human and ovine models, guides readers through the main otologic operative techniques (e.g. canalplasty, miringoplasty and ossiculoplasty) step by step, and illustrates the best approach to the internal auditory canal. Written by prominent experts in the field, this atlas serves as a unique reference resource for residents and young surgeons wishing to acquire first-hand the skills needed for endoscopic procedures and to improve their learning curves.

For otolaryngologists, voice therapists, students, and vocalists, provides an understanding of voice production and laser microsurgery, accompanied by color photographs and figures. Following a chapter on the laser concept and its development, Chapter 2 addresses the anatomy of the larynx, vocal cord vibration, and physiology. The following chapter describes anesthesia and the laryngoscopic technique for surgery. Chapter 4 offers 350 photographs with 40 precise pathological conditions and their pre-, per-, and postoperative states. The final chapter offers readers the benefit of the author's 15 years of experience and more than 5,000 cases of laser phonosurgery. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
