The book presents the full range of topics in the modern rhinology syllabus: from basic sciences of rhinology and investigative rhinology, through rhinologic symptoms and diseases, to office procedures and operations. The volume covers also related important areas that may be encountered in today's exams like the basics of rhinoplasty and anterior skull surgery.

Each chapter distils key facts into bullet points for rapid access to essential information. Supplemented by diagrams, charts, illustrative radiographs and endoscopic pictures, the topics addressed are followed by MCQs and their answers.

The volume will serve as a concise and to-the-point resource for postgraduates preparing for their fellowship, board and similar exams. Experienced otolaryngologists may also use it as a compact reference and a refresher in their day to day practice.
