Surgical Techniques in Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery: Pediatric Otolaryngologic Surgery by Robert T Sataloff

Eighteen chapters are included in all in this volume. Each chapter outlines the evidence-based medicine and background leading to the development of each surgical procedure, a detailed step-by-step description of the procedures with intraoperative drawings or photographs, and a discussion of the benefits and pitfalls. Alternatives to surgical management are discussed as well.

This volume is a practical guide to otolaryngologists of all levels with an overview of the most common surgical procedures performed in a pediatric otolaryngology practice. It covers everything from tympanostomy tube placement to cochlear implantation, cleft lip and palate repair, and oncologic surgery. Newer surgical procedures such as balloon sinuplasty and airway management are introduced in this volume to give the reader an understanding of the advances made in pediatric otolaryngology as well.
