Overview

This atlas is designed to offer a comprehensive and step-by-step guidance on Open Partial Horizontal Laryngectomies (OPHLs). Thanks to these surgical procedures, a functional portion of larynx can be preserved, and the patient can maintain voice and swallowing function. Besides the detailed description of the surgical techniques, the book covers the post-operative care, the management of complications and the dysfunctional operated larynx. Enriched with high-definition illustrations, the work enables the reader to understand the key aspect of this complex surgery and to use it in surgical settings or during dissection courses. Written by a team of renowned experts in the field, this Atlas of Open Partial Horizontal Laryngectomy is a unique and invaluable practical resource for ENT surgeons who want to understand when and how these procedures should be performed.
