Head and Neck Surgery
Head and Neck Surgery is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the head, neck, and face. This includes surgeries for cancers, congenital abnormalities, and trauma. Surgeons in this field often work on structures such as the thyroid gland, salivary glands, and sinuses.
The procedures can range from minimally invasive techniques to complex surgeries. Otolaryngologists, also known as ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialists, often perform these surgeries. The goal is to restore function, improve appearance, and enhance the quality of life for patients with various head and neck disorders.
