This book focuses on Pediatric Head and Neck Surgical Diseases and Pediatric Surgical Pathology. The core objective is to provide the reader the essential background of various head and neck diseases that are common and/or unique to children by highlighting the key diagnostic, clinical, and pathologic features. It encompasses a comprehensive spectrum of pediatric head and neck diseases that are congenital or acquired. Many chapters describe the clinical and radiologic presentation, age-specific differential diagnosis, and diagnostic histopathologic features. The clinical and pathologic aspects of diseases that are unique to children and young adults that are amenable to surgical care are specifically emphasized. Pediatric Head and Neck Textbook: Pathology, Surgery and Imaging is aimed at trainees and specialists in Pediatrics, Otolaryngology – Head & Neck Surgery, General and Pediatric Surgery, Pediatric Radiology and Pediatric Pathology.

Potential pitfalls and problems, and their solutions, are an important feature of this book, and complications are highlight...
This book is the leading international source of reference on the surgical management of neonatal disorders. It provides a comprehensive compendium of the pathophysiology, investigation and management of these conditions. Nearly 100 contributed chapters bring together a unique international consensus of expert opinion. All modern developments - including advances in fetal surgery - are covered in this revised edition. As well as a comprehensive update throughout, the second edition includes several new chapters on ground-breaking developments in neonatal surgery. The authorship has been expanded to bring in a number of additional authorities.
The opening chapter of the book illustrates how improved understanding of cellular physiology is leading to novel approaches to respiratory disorders. This is followed by an up-to-date review of modern imaging techniques of the pediatric chest and the outlook for further developments in this field. The state of the art in the management of childhood asthma is presented in the next two chapters: one focuses on the therapy of acute asthma, while the other outlines preventive approaches. Other topics covered include the diagnosis and management of sleep apnea, the applications of both rigid and flexible bronchoscopy in the pediatric age group, as well as laryngotracheal abnormalities and the new developments in surgical techniques for anomalies causing upper airway obstruction. Toxic insults to the lungs by environmental toxins, drugs, acid reflux or pulmonary disease secondary to systemic disorders are very thoroughly discussed as is the approach to the child who develops signs of chronic lung disease. The final chapter focuses on lung transplantation in children with terminal disease and presents results from the center with the greatest experience to date.
