This book has been in a ‘case report’ style, which is a compelling, efficient, fact-based and straight-forward method of learning (and teaching) that enables us to know the progressive discovery of the disease in the patient in question through diagnoses and tests, and determine the best course(s) of treatment in that particular case in question.
This is a compact but extensive work on laryngeal cancer.
