Review
‘… an excellent 'how-to-do-it' guide to a variety of surgical procedures, full of practical hints and tips. The colour photographs are of excellent quality. Even better, there are plenty of links to video demonstrations on the web which complement and enhance the content significantly. A senior trainee might flick through it while working in a children's hospital or preparing for examinations, but the real users of this book will be the people who actually do this kind of surgery themselves: senior surgeons with a paediatric airway practice who already know the 'when' and 'why' of airway surgery and are looking for some practical tips on what's new plus a little refresher on the procedures they don't do very often…’
‘All in all, an excellent read for the paediatric otolaryngologist.’

A detailed instruction manual including high definition open access online videos
For the first time the editors of this volume have brought together text, illustrations and high-definition videos to create an expert video atlas in the field of pediatric airway surgery. The publication which includes the book and free online access to the videos provides a detailed review of the pros and cons and clinical pearls involved in various modes of pediatric airway surgery.
Discussed are all the main open airway surgeries including laryngotracheal reconstruction, cricotracheal resection, tracheal resection and re-anastomosis, and slide tracheoplasty. Further covered is a range of endoscopic procedures such as endoscopic repair of laryngeal clefts and endoscopic treatment of vocal fold immobility. The high-definition videos with audio overlay and the text complement provide an excellent detailed instruction manual for surgeons willing to carry out these operations.
This publication is designed for all levels, from medical student through residency and fellowship as well as the pediatric otolaryngologist or pediatric surgeon preparing for pediatric airway surgery.
