    • French
    En conformité avec le nouveau programme de DFASM (Diplôme de formation approfondie en sciences médicales, BO du 16 mai 2013), cet ouvrage de cours synthétique traite l'ensemble des items d'ORL et de stomatologie du programme de DCEM2-DCEM4/DFASM. Cette deuxième édition reste fidèle à l'esprit de la première édition qui lui a valu son succès : chaque chapitre, consacré à un item, est rédigé suivant un plan identique, original, clair et très didactique qui facilite l'apprentissage. Chaque item comprend les éléments systématiques suivants, mis à jour et enrichis : - les conférences de consensus, d'experts et textes de recommandations existantes ; - des schémas, des algorithmes et de l'iconographie ; - des encadrés sur les notions importantes ; - des repères permettant d'identifier les sujets déjà tombés au concours de l'internat et aux ECN (depuis 15 ans), clairement indiqués en regard du thème tombé avec leur date et un court résumé des annales ; - des renvois transversaux vers les autres items du programme ; - les « zéros » aux questions ; - une « fiche Dernier tour » qui propose un résumé de l'item. Très illustrée, cette 2e édition est entièrement mise à jour sur le plan de l'évolution des données médicales et enrichie de deux chapitres supplémentaires, portant sur l'évaluation de la gravité et la recherche des complications précoces chez un traumatisé crânio-facial (item 330 du nouveau programme de DFASM, item 201 de l'ancien programme), et sur la dysphagie (item 270, item 308). De plus, le traitement du cholestéatome est approfondi dans le chapitre sur les otites chroniques. Enfin, le chapitre sur les tumeurs des voies aérodigestives (item 145) est entièrement revu. En début d'ouvrage, un tableau de correspondance inédit entre l'ancien et le nouveau programme offre un repérage rapide des changements intervenus dans la discipline : numéros d'items + objectifs pédagogiques.
