A superb collection of carefully selected, reprinted articles classified into fifteen subject groups from laryngeal framework and endoscopic surgery, through anatomy, to clinical voice disorders and therapies, and more each of which includes a commentary by leading contemporary professionals. The editors recognize that the field of laryngology and voice represents a small niche within the small niche of otolaryngology. As such, it is unlikely that works seminal to the advancement of the field will ever be recognized in the context of science, in general. However, many publications have significantly altered the way voice production is conceptualized as well as shifted treatment paradigms for patients with voice disorders. Thus, in bringing this collection together for the first time, they have admirably achieved their threefold aim: to recognize great contributions to the field; to provide a written history of the field; and to provide a compilation of landmark manuscripts in the field of laryngology and voice science for both current clinician-scientists as well as future contributors to the field.

This book is a concise guide to laryngology for clinicians. Beginning with an overview of clinical anatomy, voice assessment and imaging, the following sections cover a range of topics, from swallowing, paediatric laryngology, singers, and the aging voice, to more complex disorders and laryngotracheal reconstruction. The text discusses the latest techniques for laryngeal documentation, key principles in the management of laryngeal disorders, outcome measures, quality of life assessment, and evolving technologies. The book is enhanced by high quality clinical photographs and illustrations. Key points Concise guide to laryngology for clinicians Covers range of topics, from basic anatomy and physiology, to complex disorders and management Includes discussion on techniques for documentation and evolving technologies Highly illustrated with clinical photographs and diagrams

Although many books focus on one or another aspect of laryngology, such as voice, swallowing, or airway problems, few cover the breadth of the discipline from a teaching standpoint. The editors sought collaboration from a broad range of international contributors in this text, which avoids the cover-all reference nature of extant texts, by having each contributor write in direct, consumable units for the reader, thus providing an ideal resource for both teaching and learning. Covers every aspect of laryngology without bias on one particular aspect. Designed specifically to meet student needs rather than trying to unsuccessfully serve multiple audiences.

Laryngology: A Case-Based Approach is an invaluable new text for clinicians and students covering evidence-based assessment and management of a full range of laryngological conditions.

Key Features: • More than 300 figures, most in full color, including surgical photos, endoscopic images, pathological micrographs, and various process charts/diagrams and decision trees. • More than 30 video and audio files • Laryngology’s leading experts have contributed their knowledge, expertise and experience to discuss the varied management options as they see it. The book also comes with access to a PluralPlus companion website, where readers can access video and audio files to enhance their understanding of cases in the book. With its multitude of cases and related multimedia, Laryngology: A Case-Based Approach is must-have resource for otolaryngologists, laryngologists, phoniatricians, speech-language pathologists, as well as anesthesiologists with an interest in managing the difficult airway.

This book is a comprehensive guide to the latest advances and techniques in laryngology. Divided into six sections the text begins with an overview of the history and basic anatomy and physiology of the larynx. The following section discusses clinical evaluation, investigation and diagnosis. The remaining sections cover the management of numerous voice disorders including phonosurgery, treatment of inflammatory, endocrine and functional voice disorders, and airway and swallowing problems. The final chapter describe recent advances in the field such as laryngeal transplantation, robotic surgery, and vocal cord regeneration. The book is highly illustrated with intraoperative photographs and diagrams and clinical pearls summarising key points at the end of each chapter, enhance learning. Key points Comprehensive guide to latest advances and techniques in laryngology Covers management of numerous voice disorders Includes recent advances in surgery and vocal cord regeneration Clinical pearls highlight key points in each chapter

Laryngology: Clinical Reference Guide is a portable reference guide that fills the void of an easy-to-read, concise, but comprehensive book encompassing all aspects of laryngology. Each chapter follows a uniform outline to facilitate quick review of a topic, and the comprehensive nature of each chapter provides depth. This clinically relevant resource is organized into ten sections that are broken down into their most important and fundamental parts by chapter, including the History of Laryngology; Embryology, Anatomy, and Physiology; Evaluation and Physical Examinations; Laryngologic Disorders; Neurolaryngology; Laryngologic Manifestations of Systemic Diseases; Pediatric Laryngology; Surgery; Swallowing Disorders; and Therapy. As a review book, it is ideal for residents and fellows in training and those preparing for board and in-service training examinations, as well as medical students looking for a "deeper dive" into the world of laryngology. However, it is also excellent for the practitioner who wants to get a succinct update on the latest, cutting-edge knowledge in all areas of laryngology. The information is authored by a collection of "who's who" in laryngology. Formatted like the bestselling "Pasha" (Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery) pocket guide, this text provides a condensed amount of high-yield information with a multidisciplinary approach to bring a broad range of insight into complex clinical challenges. Key Features: *Contributions by leaders in the field *Tabs for each section for quick access *Key terms and notes in bold and italics
