Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Otorhinolaryngology (head and neck surgery), focusing on ear, nose, and throat (ENT) disorders, is a field that has significantly benefited from advances in personalized medicine. Traditionally, treatments in otorhinolaryngology were generalized, with a one-size-fits-all approach applied to the management of conditions such as hearing loss, sinusitis, allergies, sleep apnea, voice disorders, and multiple types of cancer, etc. However, recent developments in diagnostics and therapy have shifted towards a more personalized approach, driven by the unique genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors of each patient. The concept of personalized medicine in otolaryngology has evolved over the past few decades. Initially, the management of ENT disorders relied heavily on broad-spectrum medications and invasive surgical procedures with variable outcomes. The introduction of genomic medicine, improved imaging techniques, and advanced surgical technologies have transformed the landscape.

The Special Issue aims to explore and disseminate cutting-edge research that highlights the shift towards personalized care in the field of otorhinolaryngology.  This Special Issue seeks to foster a deeper understanding of how personalized approaches can be effectively implemented in otorhinolaryngology, aiming to enhance patient outcomes through more tailored and precise medical care. By featuring a mix of research articles, reviews, and case studies, this issue aims to be a valuable resource for clinicians, researchers, and healthcare professionals committed to advancing the field of personalized medicine in otorhinolaryngology. Original research, review articles, and communications are welcomed.
