OTOLARYNGOLOGY (ENT) - HEAD & NECK SURGERY
In the outpatient clinic of Otolaryngology, patient examination is performed with a video-endoscopic system as standard. Thanks to the soft endoscopes used, the causes of snoring, breathing difficulties, hoarseness, recurrent respiratory tract and ear infections can be detected more easily. Especially pediatric patients can be examined more easily, moreover areas that cannot be directly examined such as larynx and nasal region can be conveniently observed. Hearing measurements of patients from all age groups are performed in the audiology unit, which works in connection with this department, and patients are informed about the hearing aid.
The "Endoscopic Sinus Surgery" method is successfully applied in the treatment of recurrent or chronic sinus diseases by the specialist physicians of our medical center, surgical treatments of nasal septum deviations, malformations outside the nose and reduction of nasal conchae with a radiofrequency device are also performed.
Diagnosis and treatment of voice disorders are also performed endoscopically in the same way. Vocal cord nodules, polyps and edema can be intervened. The diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of laryngopharyngeal reflux, one of the leading causes of voice problems and recurrent throat infections, is carried out by our specialist physicians.

Patients who require this surgery are also referred to the American Medical Center sleep laboratory for a sleep test (polysomnography).
