This 3 half-day course covers the broad spectrum of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery.  The lectures and panel discussions are specifically aimed at the practicing otolaryngologist.  There will be ample opportunity for questions, comments, and presentation of cases by the audience.  Our goal will be to provide the latest information on a broad range of topics, so that optimal diagnostic and management strategies can be formulated.

Upon completion of this conference, participants should be able to:

• Identify current diagnostic and therapeutic options for chronic sinusitis.

• Discuss advances in head and neck oncology.

• Describe surgical approaches for face rejuvenation surgery.

• Review pathogenesis and treatment of cholesteatoma.
