Highly Commended by the BMA Medical Book Awards for Surgical Specialties! Ear nose and throat
diseases present and progress very differently in children than in adults needing different
diagnostic and treatment strategies. Training in the subspecialty of pediatric otolaryngology
is often part of a general ENT program and not a program in itself. As such the general
otolaryngologist may be insufficiently prepared to handle certain pediatric cases. R. W.
Clarke's Pediatric Otolaryngology: Practical Clinical Management aims to provide the pediatric
ENT resident or fellow as well as the general ENT practitioner with sound clinical guidance
on ENT pathologies as they affect the pediatric population. Key Features: - Fully describes the
characteristics of ENT diseases in children as opposed to only describing how the disorders
differ from their presentations in adults - International cast of expert contributors -
Practice based for the clinician - Comprehensive accounts of hearing loss in children often
poorly covered in standard texts - Text boxes orient the reader to danger signs top tips in
surgery advice regarding potential complications situations that need urgent referral and
medicolegal pitfalls Pediatric Otolaryngology is an essential reference of this important
subspecialty for ENT doctors in practice as well as in preparation for board examinations.
