This is a guide to the evaluation and management of both common and uncommon diseases of the external ear. It represents a synthesis of otolaryngology and dermatology, and offers both medical and surgical means of treatment. Organized by aetiologic categories, the book addresses infectious, inflammatory, congenital, allergic, mechanical, traumatic and neoplastic conditions. Fifty colour photos illustrate the clinical manifestations of external ear disease. A revised and expanded appendix lists therapies by generic and brand names. The text includes coverage describing the diagnosis and treatment of auricular skin conditions, and line drawings and photographs illustrating diagnosis and treatment.
