Reviews
"Ten years after the third edition, this has been expanded to 58 chapters and it weighs a ton. I always judge the quality of updating by checking the chapter references' year of publication. There is a great little chapter on Research in Laryngology which stands this test well. The final chapter on Telemedicine speaks for itself as topical! There are high quality illustrations throughout, as you would expect from laryngology practice. Jean Abitbol's chapter on 3D CT of the larynx shows the most remarkable colour images; a chapter on Videography and Photography of the larynx makes me wonder at what we used to achieve with 35 mm slide film, but also how things move on. Clearly UK surgeons can take the odd snap, to judge by the work of Sandhu and Howard on Laryngotracheal Stenosis . Look at their figure 48-2 as the cleverest way to size a stenosed larynx (something no human eye can possibly do, unaided. Remember the square of the radius rule, for cross sectional area.) Frankly you might miss this book and think it is solely for the small minority who make phonosurgery their life work. For the experts this remains a standard text, but it is an invaluable update for final exit exams and for anyone working in general ORL clinical practice." --Liam Flood, FRCS, FRCSI, The Journal of Laryngology and Otology (September 2014) "This edition has 58 chapters (compared to 48 in the third edition) subdivided into basic science, clinical assessment, and management. Some chapters are classics, such as the one on embryology and microanatomy. Other chapters have been extensively rewritten or newly added to include advances in the field. These chapters add greatly to the comprehensiveness of the book and provide inspiration. Particularly interesting are reports on cutting-edge treatments including reinveration and laryngeal replacement and reconstruction. The book has high quality color photographs and diagrams as well as a list of references at the end of every chapter to help direct further reading. This is an update of a sem
