ENT (Ear, nose and throat medicine)

Ear, nose and throat (ENT) medicine is concerned with the treatment of diseases in the region of ear, nose and the paranasal sinuses resp. of mouth and throat. The accordant medical diagnostics are capable of analysing functional disturbances regarding smelling, hearing and tasting, of clarifying balance disorders and of detecting tumours in the head- and neck region.

Many patients from abroad are traveling to Germany in order to undergo a hearing prosthesis implantation by means of a so called cochlea implant (CI) at specialised centres. Deaf and hearing-impaired persons can thus regain major parts of their hearing capacity after the implantation of an electrode into the inner ear combined with professional hearing training. Some ENT clinics have furthermore specialised in the performance of rhinoplasties where the nasal size or shape is being corrected in the course of a plastic-surgical intervention. The excision of the tonsils and nasal septum corrections represent other frequent interventions.

General and specialized surgery within the discipline (e.g. tonsillectomy and salivary gland surgery)	Inflammatory diseases of the paranasal sinuses / sinusitis - endoscopic microsurgery of the paranasal sinuses
Nasal septum deviation - septoplasty	Rhinoplasty, functional and aesthetic surgery of the nose
Microsurgery of the larynx	Middle ear surgery to treat disease and improve hearing
Otoendoscopy- otoscopy using endoscopes. Diagnosis, evaluation of findings and follow-up treatment after ear surgery	Hardness of hearing
Conservative therapy, e.g. after sudden hearing loss
