Whereas atlases of endoscopic sinus surgical procedure are a variety of, there's a critical wisdom hole created by means of the inability of a complete, up to date atlas devoted to workplace diagnostic nasal endoscopy. the 1st and basically such atlas, written in German and translated in 1978, is unfortunately old-fashioned. Filling this hole, An Atlas of Diagnostic Nasal Endoscopy illustrates all editions of ordinary intranasal anatomy and pathologies obvious via nasal endoscopy.
Developed by way of an writer with greater than fifteen years of expertise, the publication positive factors greater than six hundred photographs of standard and irregular findings of nasal endoscopy. Captioned with arrows and legends, each one picture offers a transparent and autonomous instructing message. This structure permits the reader to simply locate the data they want with out wading via details they do not. the writer additionally offers transparent, concise expository textual content that gives history info for every chapter.
The person pleasant layout and complete insurance of the traditional versions of intranasal anatomy and the numerous irregular pathologies encountered in medical perform make An Atlas of Diagnostic Nasal Endoscopy an enormous source for all trainees, practitioners, and academics of otolaryngology, and practitioners and experts attracted to sinus issues.

Example text
On a coronal CT scan, the olfactory slits were noted to be patent Page 22 This page intentionally left blank. This uncommon anomaly, usually discovered accidentally, is asymptomatic and of no clinical significance. A pediatric endoscope and even an infracture of the inferior turbinate may be needed for an adequate evaluation of the inferior meatus. Hasner’s valve may be missing or incompetent in some subjects, and the circular or oval opening of the duct can then be seen well on endoscopy. In addition, nasal endoscopy allows the visualizing of new nasolacrimal connections following various kinds of surgeries for epiphora, and following the medial maxillectomy for inverted papilloma or other pathology.
This chapter pictures the variations encountered by the author. The long arrow points to the uncinate process and the arrowhead to the middle turbinate Page 44 This page intentionally left blank. Paradoxical and cellular middle turbinates have been suspected of contributing to, or causing sinusitis, but the evidence to date is far from convincing. Incidental small polyps may be seen anywhere on a middle turbinate. 30 A polypoid tip of the tail of the right middle turbinate, similar to the more commonly seen polypoid posterior tips of inferior turbinates Page 52 This page intentionally left blank.

The posterior ethmoid cells drain into it. The superior meatus connects with the sphenoethmoid recess which lies posterior, medial, and inferior to it. Small retention cysts and polyps have been discovered there incidentally especially in the elderly; they are usually asymptomatic and of no clinical significance.
