  • Guide d'ORL

    Clinique et thérapeutique
    • 1st Edition
    • Jean-Pierre Sauvage
    • French
    Les otorhinolaryngologis... se sont divisés en surspécialités chirurgicales : chirurgie endoscopique des sinus, chirurgie otologique et implants cochléaires, chirurgie pharyngolaryngée endoscopique au laser et avec robot. En même temps, et bien que menacée par la raréfaction annoncée des spécialistes, il demeure une ORL générale médicale. La nouveauté est que l’exploration visuelle des fosses nasales, du pharynx et du larynx s’apprend dorénavant en quelques minutes grâce à l’utilisation des fibres optiques. La fibroscopie nasopharyngée permet le dépistage des cancers laryngés du fumeur à des stades autorisant les chirurgies les moins invasives. Elle peut donner en quelques secondes la cause d’un nez bouché. Chez un enfant qui entend mal en classe, un otoscope puissamment lumineux montre tous les détails de l’otite séromuqueuse simple ou déjà passée au stade adhésif. Ainsi, ce guide d’ORL pose les fondamentaux de la pathologie cervico-faciale en s’appuyant sur les démarches diagnostiques regroupées en 12 thèmes de base. Ces thèmes sont complétés par des fiches courtes classées par ordre alphabétique et qui décrivent de nombreuses formes cliniques et les gestes techniques indispensables. La plupart des situations cliniques sont illustrées par des vidéos en ligne. L’originalité de cet ouvrage est de rassembler les intuitions géniales de nos anciens maitres, confirmées par les données les plus récentes de l’imagerie et des examens complémentaires.

    Pediatricians care for children and families from all walks of life. Some are children known from neighborhoods. Others are children from distant lands. Pediatric focus does not stop with the physical care of children but extends to include their mental and social-emotional health and concern about their families. Pediatricians care about how children are doing at home, at school, and in their communities. In this era, children and their families are impacted by social and political changes in their homes (social media and screen time), in their communities (refugee populations and children requiring palliative supports at school), in their health care networks (EMR in every tertiary pediatric center), and in the larger world (multiple military deployments of fathers and mothers). This issue explores the impact of contemporary public health challenges for pediatric care, promising models for caring for chronically ill children, and state of the art therapies for complex childhood conditions.
