Reseñas

"…a well-recognized, longstanding comprehensive textbook of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery… This edition provides information to keep up with the continued growth of the field. As well as many more instructional videos, including videos of all of the ACGME's key indicator procedures (KIPs) in otolaryngology… This book is for any practitioner or student of otolaryngology, regardless of their level of experience. World-renowned authors and editors contribute to this book, making it an exceptional resource for information and learning…. one of the hallmark reference textbooks in otolaryngology and head and neck surgery. It compares very well to other comprehensive textbooks in this field. The expansion of the information and procedural techniques in the field necessitates this updated edition. This book is highly recommended for any practitioner in otolaryngology, particularly otolaryngology residents."
