Pediatric Otolaryngology: A Psychosocial Perspective
The 4th Edition of this definitive work thoroughly covers today's scientific knowledge in paediatric otolaryngology along with a full spectrum of state-of-the-art medical and surgical management methods. Each section reviews the differential diagnosis of the presenting signs and symptoms common to a particular area, and then guides readers through specific approaches for evaluation and management. All chapters have been updated with the latest information, including coverage of diseases of the inner ear and sensorineural hearing loss, allergic rhinitis and gastroesophageal reflux.
* Includes new chapters on thyroid disease, balance disorders, congenital anomalies of the inner ear, developmental milestones, the syndromic child, imaging of the head and neck, preoperative evaluation of the child and a history of paediatric otolaryngology.
* Offers updates to every chapter incorporating the most recent information available.
* Features a new editorial team along with many new contributors to provide the
* freshest, most complete perspectives on the field
