Abstract

Otolaryngology, commonly known as ear, nose, and throat (ENT) medicine, encompasses the diagnosis and treatment of disorders affecting the head and neck region. This article aims to highlight recent advancements in otolaryngology, shedding light on innovative techniques, technologies, and research findings that have significantly impacted patient care and outcomes. Precision medicine has gained momentum in otolaryngology, revolutionizing treatment approaches. Genetic profiling and personalized therapies now allow physicians to tailor treatment plans based on an individual's unique genetic makeup, optimizing treatment efficacy and minimizing adverse effects. Endoscopic and robotic-assisted surgeries have gained prominence in otolaryngology, enabling less invasive procedures with reduced scarring, pain, and recovery time. These techniques have proven beneficial in various procedures, such as sinus surgery, vocal cord surgery, and thyroidectomy
