Synopsis of Otorhinolaryngology : Including Instruments

Additional Details

This book is based on the author's highly acclaimed title Diseases of Ear, Nose and Throat, first published in 1969, which was the only textbook on ENT meant for MBBS students written by an Indian author during the post-independence period. This thoroughly revised, rewritten and updated text covers all the topics under the subject of otorhinolaryngology, also providing information on the advanced developments in the important areas. The presentation of the text giving facts in a precise way is aimed at helping the undergraduate students understand the subject topics quickly and easily. The book is written to suit the requirements of undergraduate medical students. However, the advance information highlights the usefulness of the text to the trainees of ENT, the ENT practitioners as also the specialists. The highlights of this edition include text and illustrations in colour and new chapters on endoscopic sinonasal surgery, endoscopic tympanomastoid surgery, cochlear implantation surgery with posterior tympanotomy, facial nerve exploration and decompression surgery and use of lasers in ENT. Chapters on instruments and X-rays will tremendously help in the undergraduate medical students in their preparation for the final MBBS examination.
