Common procedures
ENT surgeons use many different surgical procedures including:
insertion of grommets for glue ear – this involves a very small incision in the ear drum and is typically carried out on children. The grommets help to ventilate the middle ear and resolve middle ear effusions
tonsillectomy (removal of tonsils) or adenoidectomy (removal of adenoids), most often in children
septoplasty – correction of nasal septum to prevent obstruction and enable clear breathing
microlaryngoscopy – a short metal tube (laryngoscope) is inserted into the larynx (voice box). This is used for examination and can also be used to perform a biopsy or surgery
oesophagoscopy – a long metal or flexible tube (oesophagoscope) is inserted through the mouth into the oesophagus
endoscopic sinus surgery – a tiny telescope is inserted into the nasal passages to diagnose and treat difficult sinus conditions. Technically refined instruments are then used to restore proper function
tympanomastoid surgery to reconstruct and remove epithelial inclusions (cholesteatoma) within the middle ear
open operations to remove neck lumps, and salivary gland tumours
tracheostomy
ENT surgery has been at the forefront of the latest medical technologies and minimally invasive procedures are common. This has many benefits including less scarring and shorter recovery periods
