The diagnosis and treatment of the diseases of the nose, paranasal sinuses and skull base have changed dramatically in the past few years, transforming rhinol- ogy in one of most exciting and attractive medical fields. The increasing advance in this area has addressed the ENT physicians to keep up with the expanding information in the high tech area of sinus surgery and its expansion into skull base surgery. The intention of this book is to present in a unique way basic information on Anatomy, Endoscopy, Rhinomanometry, Imaging, Allergy, Nasosinus Infection, and Polyposis followed by by...

Addressing disease of the frontal sinus successfully remains, perhaps, one of the most technically challenging issues encountered by otolaryngologists. The intricate anatomy, combined with a narrow aperture and relatively acute angle of approach, leads to complexity not encountered elsewhere in surgery of the sinuses. This comprehensive volume with contributions by over 30 of the world's leading rhinologists will help to shed light on this difficult topic. Thorough discussions of anatomy and pathophysiology of a variety of frontal sinus diseases provide a background for in-depth chapters...

The exponential explosion of diagnostic techniques that is the hallmark of Twentieth Century medicine often makes us forget that the human perceptual senses are still the simplest, most reliable, and most readily available means of recognizing disease and detecting abnormalities in the human body. Improvements in optical telescopes and in glass rod light transmission have enables us to look directly into the human body, and they are indispensable to modern endoscopy. The present monograph is a product of many years of diligent search and tireless work by Professor WOLFGANG DRAF in the field...

The region of the skull base was long considered a surgical barrier because of its complex anatomy. With few exceptions, the region immediately beyond the dura or bony skull base constituted a "no man's land" for the surgeon working from the other direction. A major reason for this was the high morbidity associated with operative procedures in that area using traditional dissection techniques. This situation changed with the advent of the operating microscope. Used initially by ear, nose and throat specialists for resective and reconstructive surgery of the petrous bone and parana sal...

Ein weiteres Standardwerk aus der Kirschnerschen Operationslehre In dieser Neuauflage wird dem Bereich der Nasennebenhhlen und der angrenzendenSch{delbasis endlich ein eigener Band einger{umt. Die entsprechenden Kapitelder vorliegenden Auflage sind dazu nat}rlich komplett }berarbeitet worden. F}r alle Nasennebenhhlen werden die bekannten Standardoperationen - auch im Hinblick auf den Einsatz modernster technischer Hilfsmittel - beschrieben. So wird z.B. auch besonders auf die Mikrochirurgie der Nasennebenhhlen mit Hilfe von Endoskopen und Mikroskop eingegangen. Au erdem ist eine detaillierte...

Sowohl bei der konservativen als auch bei der operativen Therapie von Nasennebenhohlenerkrankungen erlebt man als Arzt immer wieder Enttauschungen insofern, als sich die Beschwerden des Patienten nicht oder nur wenig bessern, ja, dass sie sich- und dies ist besonders nach operativen Eingriffen gar nicht so selte- sogar verschlimmern. Diese Unsicherheit in der Prognose hangt nicht zuletzt mit den beschrankten diagnostischen Moglichkeiten zusammen, die eine sichere Beurteilung der Nasennebenhohlener krankung, insbesondere des Schleimhautzustandes, der Abflussver haltnisse und der Menge und...
