The Operative Unit of Otorhinolaryngology is able to offer the Patient a complete health treatment that includes diagnosis, therapeutic and surgical treatment, hospitalization for as many days as necessary and post-operative follow-up. Thanks to a specialized medical staff that has been dealing with pathologies of the head and neck area for several decades, specifically in the treatment of tumoral pathologies of these areas, but also in mini-invasive endoscopic nasosinusal surgery for the treatment of sinusitis and breathing difficulties, in ear surgery, laryngeal surgery, nose and ear aesthetic surgery, salivary gland and thyroid surgery.

The techniques used by our surgeons are at a high level, thanks also to the ongoing qualification of doctors, who constantly participate as listeners and interpreters in international courses and congresses.

Part of the medical team are professionals specialized in the field of ORL, such as: Prim. Dr. Renato Janušić (from Croatia) and Dr.Spec. Zgjim Limani

For a more complete service, for the most complex cases, the staff of ORL doctors collaborates closely with other prominent colleagues of various specialties, with the sole aim of providing the most optimal and effective service for our patients. It is worth noting the fact that for surgical interventions, anesthesia is applied by anesthesiologists with extensive and specialized experience to assist in surgical interventions.

What is Otorhinolaryngology – ORL

Otorhinolaryngology or ORL for short is a branch of medicine that depends a lot on the development and progress of science and technology, technical aids, to make possible the successful examination of the inside of the ear, throat, nose and tracheobronchial tube. These organs are specific to their anatomical location in the human body and require focused light to study.

The most frequent ear, nose and throat diseases in our population are: inflammatory diseases (external and middle ear, nasal mucosa and sinuses, limbs, throat, larynx), which can be infectious or allergic, , buzzing in the ears tinnitus), vertigo (Vertigo), chills (surdit as), polyps, tumors, etc.

If there are ear, throat or nose complaints in the patient, it is necessary to report to the otorhinolaryngology specialist.

Symptoms include ear pain, hearing impairment, urinary discharge, dizziness, buzzing or sneezing in the ear. Problems related to the nose are difficulty in breathing, nasal secretions, itchy nose, weakened sense of smell, vomiting, nosebleeds, etc. Pain problems include sore throat, burning, pain or difficulty swallowing, coughing, reaction, changes or mucus etc.
