O primeiro passo para a atuação do otorrinolaringologista no processo transexualizador. A transexualidade tem sido objeto de políticas públicas nos últimos anos a partir do reconhecimento das vulnerabilidades em que vivem as pessoas trans. Na área da saúde, é relativamente recente a proposição de uma política nacional de saúde direcionada a esta população. A instituição do Processo Transexualizador permitiu o acesso a procedimentos para harmonização, cirurgias de modificação corporal e genital, assim como acompanhamento multiprofissional. Neste contexto, a Otorrinolaringologia sempre teve um papel periférico tanto pela escassez de profissionais habilitados quanto pela pe...
A aplicação das técnicas microcirúrgicas a cada patologia da laringe. A laringologia e a microcirurgia de laringe, dentro da otorrinolaringologia internacional e nacional, apresentou grandes crescimentos nas últimas décadas, sobretudo com o desenvolvimento de métodos diagnósticos acurados e de novas técnicas microcirúrgicas, que impactaram em toda a especialidade. Esta obra é uma contribuição à otorrinolaringologia brasileira na área da microcirurgia de laringe. São abordados temas que detalham o manejo microcirúrgico das doenças benignas da laringe, que são as mais frequentes indicações desta técnica cirúrgica. A construção deste livro nos fornece, assim, não apenas imagens em vídeo com formatação em Realidade Aumentada, mas também um texto afinado, embasado com extensa referência bibliográfica atualizada, para complementar a relação entre a aplicação das técnicas microcirúrgicas e cada patologia apresentada. Esta contribuição acadêmica, sem dúvidas, fomentará o interesse dos jovens otorrinos pela laringologia.
In 1790, Xavier de Maistre was 27 years old, and a soldier in the army of the Sardinian Kingdom, which covered swathes of modern-day Northern Italy and Southern France. He was placed under house-arrest in Turin for fighting an illegal duel. It was during the 42 days of his confinement here that he wrote the manuscript that would become Voyage autour de ma chambre. Inspired by the works of Laurence Sterne, with their digressive and colloquial style, de Maistre decided to make the most of his sentence by recording an exploration of the room as a travel journal. de Maistre’s book imbues the tour of his chamber with great mythology and grand scale. As he wanders the few steps that it takes to circumnavigate the space, his mind spins off into the ether. It parodies the travel journals of the eighteenth-century (such as A Voyage Around the World by Louis de Bougainville, 1771), and could be read today as an early take on the modern vogue for “psychogeography” — each tiny thing that he encounters sends de Maistre into rhapsodies, and mundane journeys become magnificent voyages.
