An important review of the clinical anatomy of the nose, nasal cavity, and paranasal sinuses is presented by Professor Lang. He has intensively researched the anatomy of these structures for a quarter of a century, with emphasis on exact measurements of these vital structures as they relate to surgical intervention.

Continuing the Respiratory Pharmacology and Pharmacotherapy series, this volume explores the pathophysiology and therapy of rhinitis. The volume is introduced by a chapter describing the normal anatomy and physiology of the nose and sinuses. Against this background the contributing authors describe and discuss the immunological and pathological changes which occur in rhinitis. The various causes and the types of rhinitis - such as allergic, vasomotor, and infectious - are discussed as are the treatments available (pharmacotherapy, immunotherapy, surgery). The book concludes with a description of the animal models of rhinitis which are now available. This book will be of interest to bench scientists and clinicians alike.

This book shows the surgical anatomy of nasal and paranasal structures, with emphasis on anatomical variations and their surgical importance. It provides tridimensional views of cadaveric microdissections, showing all relevant anatomical structures in the nose and its relations with areas of surgical risk. The current official anatomical nomenclature is used to describe unique high quality figures and illustrations including CT scans of the nose and paranasal sinuses.

This is the only book dedicated solely to frontal sinus disorders. It is a richly illustrated and comprehensive mine of information on the anatomy and management of these disorders. This updated second edition offers much new information. Additional topics include balloon dilation, frontal surgery as part of skull base surgery, and advances in endoscopic techniques and tools that have occurred since 2004 and have made open osteoplastic procedures almost obsolete. The anatomy and surgery of the supraorbital ethmoid cell and its significance in the pathology of frontal sinus disease are also covered. Throughout the book, particularly important areas of text are highlighted and core messages, emphasized. Videos of described procedures are available online.

The aim of this book is to harmonize the field of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery and its interdisciplinary subjects within the European Community; to present the state of the art in the field and to give standards for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The book includes sections titled Head and Neck, Larynx and Trachea, Nose and Paranasal Sinuses, Oral Cavity and Oropharynx, and Otology and Neurotology. It also covers such topics as patient evaluation and treatment, basic surgical procedures, as well as more conservative approaches. The book is authored by renowned experts throughout Europe, and features a layout that facilitates quick and easy retrieval of information.
