Excerpt from Operative Surgery of the Nose, Throat, and Ear, Vol. 1 of 2: For Laryngologists, Rhinologists, Otologists and Surgeons
This work was undertaken at the suggestion of many colleagues, with no little misgiving on the part of the author. To lighten the burden and to make the publication more effective, it was divided among collaborators who were specially qualified for the assigned topics.
The endeavor has been to present the operative surgery of the nose, throat and ear, unaccompanied by any discussion of pathology, etiology or symptomatology. The method of operating, the indications, the contraindications, after-treatment and results have been considered paramount for the purposes of this work.
The illustrations are practically all original, the majority of them being drawn expressly for this work. They are planned to make the text clear without too great a sacrifice of detail.
The first volume deals with the more general subjects, such as the surgical anatomy of the nose, throat and ear, the external surgery of the throat, the direct examination of the larynx, trachea, bronchi, esophagus and stomach, and the operations made possible through its agency, and the plastic surgery of the nose and ear.
Volume II is to be devoted to the more specialized surgery of the nasal cavities, the pharynx and larynx, which has been developed during the years of laryngologic and otologic activity, since the laryngoscope was devised.
Grateful acknowledgment is here made to the many who have by their efforts, advice and encouragement rendered this publication possible, to Mr. A. Schwitalla, S. J., who was of great assistance in reviewing the text, to the collaborators, and to the publishers, whose patience has been most commendable.
