Key Features: Richly illustrated with over 1000 mostly full-color photographs and many radiological studies. Shows a vast range of common and rare pathologies that can be visualized and assessed via endo-otoscopy. Juxtaposes, when appropriate, the clinical picture, radiological diagnosis, and intraoperative findings with the endo-otoscopic findings of the patient. In each chapter, a surgical summary lists various approaches that may be used to optimally plan treatment of the patient. A special final chapter covers the assessment of postsurgical findings as seen in otoscopy, so as to distinguish between normal healing and changes that may require further intervention. Color Atlas of Endo-Otoscopy, produced with the support of Mario Sanna Foundation, is certain to become a valuable tool for all physicians involved in the care of patients with ear ailments"--Provided by publisher.
