Ear Nose And Throat Diseases Of The Dog And Cat (Hb 2017) Hardcover

Ear, Nose and Throat Diseases of the Dog and Cat serves as the definitive resource for veterinary professionals seeking to diagnose and treat a comprehensive range of ear, nose, and throat (ENT) conditions in companion animals, from common ailments to rarer presentations. The book is logically structured into four parts: The Ear, The Nose, The Throat, and ENT Surgery. The initial three sections begin with a foundational overview of the relevant anatomy and physiology. They then thoroughly explore various diagnostic techniques, including video-endoscopy of the ear canal, nasal passages, and throat, along with radiography, advanced imaging, and histopathological analysis of biopsies. Subsequent chapters within these three sections offer in-depth reviews of diseases affecting specific areas: the pinna, external ear canal, middle ear, and inner ear: the nasal planum, nasal cavities, sinuses, and nasopharynx: and the pharynx and larynx. The concluding surgery section starts with a chapter on perioperative care, followed by detailed chapters dedicated to surgical procedures of the ear, nose, and throat. Richly referenced and featuring nearly 500 color illustrations to aid in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning, this book is an indispensable tool for both veterinary students and practicing veterinarians for the precise identification and management of ENT diseases in dogs and cats.
