ENT: Cervico-Facial Pathology and Salivary Glands

Otolaryngology · Clinical Specialties

How it begins

Comprehensive study of the surgical anatomy of the neck, the classification and differential diagnosis of cervical masses, deep cervicofacial infections, benign and malignant pathology of the major and minor salivary glands, cervical oncology and facial nerve pathology, with expert-level clinical correlations.
