Ear Nose Throat

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. ENT surgeons use many different surgical procedures including:

Major Procedures:

  • 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
  • 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
  • Open operations to remove neck lumps, and salivary gland tumours
  • Tracheostomy

Minor Procedures:

  • Vertigo Clinic
  • Ear syringing with normal saline/DAAI
  • Vestibular function test/Positional test/cold caloric test
  • Epley’s Manoeurre
  • Foreign body removal from nose/ Ear/ Throat / Larynx/hypoharyna
  • Pure tone audiometry
  • Drainage of Auricular haematoma
  • Precuricular sinus excision under LA
  • Hearing aid trail
  • Repair of Lacerated pinna/ facial lacerated under LA
  • Ear Piercing
  • Keloid excision under LAg
  • Lobuloplasty for split ear lobule
  • Chemical cautery of ear perforation
  • Anterior and Posterior nasal packing
  • Cautery for Epistaxis
  • Diagnostic Rigid nasal / laryngeal endoscopies
  • Nasal/oral/oropharygeal / Nasopharyngeal/ Hypopharyngeal biopsies
  • Sebaceous cyst excision
  • Lymph node excision / Biopsy
  • Incision and drainage under LA
  • Retension Cyst excision under LA
  • Submandibular duct calculus removal
  • Quinsy drainage under LA
  • Intra oral injections for submucosal fibrosis

When to see an Otorhinolaryngologist (ENT Specialist)

Ear conditions include:

  • Otitis Externa- a common condition of external ear canal
  • Otitis media with effusion – a common condition of childhood (also known as glue ear) in which the middle ear becomes blocked with fluid
  • Age related hearing loss
  • Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and eustachian tube dysfunction
  • Dizziness and vertigo

 Nose conditions include:

  • Allergic Rhinitis/ Sinusitis
  • Sinus infection and rhino-sinusitis, including in children
  • Nasal injuries/ Nasal Bone fracture
  • Nasal polyps
  • Tumours of the nose

Throat conditions include:

  • Pharyngitis- Inflammation of Pharynx
  • Adenoid problems – surgical removal of these small glands in the throat at the back of the nose is sometimes needed and is usually performed in childhood
  • Tonsillitis, sometimes requiring surgical removal of the tonsils, usually in childhood
