What kind of Department is Yao municipal hospital's department of Otorhinolaryngology?
Otorhinolaryngology is the department that diagnoses and treats ear, nose and throat (laryngopharyngeal) diseases , using internal medicine (drugs and treatments) and surgery (operations). In addition, as it treats "swellings (tumors)" from the neck up, Otolaryngology is also called Head and Neck Surgery in Europe and America. You might be surprised to find "There is surgery in otolaryngology?", but Yao Municipal Hospital Otolaryngology department performs more than 500 operations with or without hospitalization a year. General clinics treat mainly the medical aspect. At Yao municipal hospital, we take in charge the surgical aspect and the head and neck department. Concretely, we treat otitis media surgery and nervous hearing loss and dizziness, empyema (chronic sinusitis) and allergic rhinitis surgery, smelling disease nervous disorder, vocal cord polyp, etc. We treat tumors, in the mouth or in the throat, as well as salivary gland tumors. In addition to this we also treat facial paralysis, which suddenly worsen facial movement.
