The 4th Edition of this definitive work thoroughly covers todays 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.
