Otolaryngology Cases: The University of Cincinnati Clinical Portfolio

In the tradition of the acclaimed first edition, experts from the
University of Cincinnati\'s Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck
Surgery present new case reviews. Every chapter presents patient-based
scenarios to prepare practitioners for ENT cases they will encounter
during rounds, rotations, and patient exams. By establishing a uniform
algorithm in obtaining and utilising discreet points of data, the
authors encourage a disciplined approach to patient assessment and
management options. Sections organised by anatomy and subspecialty
enhance the ability to learn and retain knowledge. For example, benign
and malignant pathologies are systematically detailed in anatomical
sections dedicated to the neurovascular structures, oral cavity and
pharynx, larynx, thyroid, salivary gland, and skin. The text covers the
full age continuum - including congenital, acquired, benign, and
malignant disorders such as paediatric subglottic stenosis and facial,
head, and neck cancers that primarily affect adults. Key Highlights: *
Presentation of 100 practical cases including history, differential
diagnoses, test interpretations, definitive diagnoses, medical and
surgical management, rehabilitation, and follow-up. * Up-to-date
coverage of every major ENT specialty: otology and neurotology, the
skull base, rhinology, laryngology, head and neck cancer, sleep
disorders, paediatric otolaryngology, trauma, and facial plastic and
reconstructive surgery. * Nearly 150 meticulous colour photographs and
graphics elucidate disease characteristics and clinical findings. *
Chapter bibliographies with current literature sources augment case
reviews. * Multiple-choice questions serve as a robust study tool,
optimising knowledge acquisition and retention. This must-have resource
enables otolaryngology residents and practitioners to learn from case
studies and incorporate state-of-the-art techniques into daily practice,
thereby optimising patient care.
