Clinical aspects of benign and malignant tumors of the larynx, nose and paranasal sinuses, nasopharynx, pharynx, oral cavity, neck and salivary tumors will be discused. Inflammatory diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses, oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, ear and salivary glands will be presented.

Very inportant clinical aspects of complications of ear and paranasal infections will be considerated. The emergencies in ENT like acute bleeding, dyspnea, foreign bodies of the oesophagus, trauma, hearing loss or virtigo will be presented and discussed.
