Description
This volume presents important new scientific data on hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy, a technique already in clinical use in the field of otolaryngology, head and neck surgery. As well as examining present-day applications, leading specialists look at possible future indications of this therapy and pay particular attention to otological complications caused by HBO therapy. Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss, noise-induced hearing loss, and tinnitus are challenging problems for otologists because of the difficulties in finding the right treatment for many cases. The effectiveness of HBO therapy in treating these disorders is described in detail, in addition to its role in the management of bone-anchored reconstruction with titanium implants in irradiated head and neck cancer patients. Another new indication for HBO therapy in the field of otology, is facial palsy, which is closely examined in this book.

Description
Cochlear implantation has become a firmly established procedure for rehabilitating deaf individuals. Furthermore, developments in this field have been remarkable in respect of basic sciences, surgery, rehabilitation and related fields. Cochlear implantation demands a multidisciplinary approach and, in this book, worldwide leading experts cover all major aspects of cochlear implantation with practical data and discussions. You will see current and future trends in cochlear implants. This reference is an outstanding professional tool for otolaryngologists, audiologists, and speech-language pathologists who work for cochlear implantees. Major features include: new devices and electrophysiological studies, imaging studies, brainstem implants, speech and coding strategies, candidate selection and evaluations, surgical issues and difficult cases, pediatric cochlear implantation, rehabilitation and clinical management, language development, and education. Readers of this volume will gain access to the latest research results as well as valuable insights into the field.
