Abstract This textbook includes the latest knowledge and advances for a comprehensive range of disorders, including the management of benign and malignant sinonasal tumours. Rhinology is now a fully established and highly popular specialist field that has undergone a major paradigm shift over recent decades. This progressive change has been possible because of the synchronous developments in technology, radiology, therapeutics and pharmacology. These advances have changed clinical practice in every dimension, and this has led to a truly global exponential rise in specialist rhinological interest into the management of sinonasal disorders. Contemporary Rhinology: Science and Practice opens with the basic science of rhinology, with chapters that build an understanding of the nose and sinuses. Chapters cover embryology, anatomy, physiology, immunology, sleep disorders, and more. From there, clinical assessment of the nose and sinuses is discussed. The following sections cover pediatric sinonasal disorders and inflammatory sinus disorders, such as pediatric rhinosinusitis, pediatric nasal deformity, allergic and non-allergic rhinitis, and fungal sinus disease. Following these are several chapters discussing tumors and sinus and skull base surgery. The textbook closes with coverage of a variety of smaller topics, such as epistaxis, trauma to the nose and paranasal sinuses, and nasal obstructions. The textbook features outstanding illustrations, video clips, and key points to enhance understanding and recall. This textbooks balance of applied science and clinical practicality makes is an ideal resource for anyone from trainee surgeons to established specialists in rhinology.
