The intricate anatomy of the head and neck can be challenging for radiologists, especially in the presence of post-operative changes. For this reason, it is imperative for radiologists to understand which structures are involved in common head and neck procedures. In addition, knowledge of normal post-surgical anatomy will help radiologists identify abnormal findings and potential surgical complications which may need further management.
The purpose of this exhibit is to review 1) head and neck anatomy in the context of common head and neck procedures and 2) post-operative changes and potential complications of common head and neck operations.
1. Brief review of normal head and neck anatomy
2. Common pathologies of the head and neck
3. Case based review of common head and neck procedures with emphasis on post-operative appearance
Ear (including Grommet, mastoidectomy, myringoplasty)
Nose (including endoscopic sinus surgery, septoplasty, turbinectomy)
Throat (including tonsillectomy, glossectomy, adenoidectomy)
Neck (including thyroidectomy, parathyroidectomy, submandibular gland removal)
4. Post quiz
