EAR NOSE THROAT SECTION

Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) - Otorhinolaryngology is a medical field that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of disorders in the head, neck, ear, nose, and throat regions. It covers a wide range of conditions, including headaches, chronic cold, sinusitis, sore throat, tinnitus, discharge, inflammation, and snoring. Additionally, it encompasses the detection of masses in the head and neck area, thyroid and parathyroid diseases and tumors, salivary gland diseases and tumors, head and neck tumors (such as larynx, nasopharynx, oral cavity, sinus, and skull base tumors), nasal aesthetics, and facial aesthetic procedures, as well as the treatment and surgical interventions for hearing loss and ear drum-related issues.

Individuals of all age groups can seek treatment at the ENT unit. After listening to the patient's complaints, ENT specialists conduct a detailed examination and endoscopic evaluation, along with a series of tests and analyses to establish a diagnosis. Based on the test results, the appropriate treatment method is determined according to the severity of the disease. New patients, as well as those suffering from chronic conditions in these areas, seek treatment at the unit to ensure the healthy continuation of their treatment. Patients who require periodic checks, such as those who underwent aesthetic surgery within the ENT field, are required to undergo regular specialist examinations to ensure that the post-treatment rehabilitation process proceeds smoothly.

Our operating rooms are equipped with necessary surgical sets that contribute to the patient's comfort and successful surgery. These sets play a crucial role in physician practice, especially in the areas of endoscopic sinus surgery, middle ear, and mastoid surgery.
