On the basis of the material of the Clinic the frequency of these tumors was estimated and the therapeutic procedure including widening of the surgical indications for the partial laryngectomy and narrowing the indications for nodular surgery of the neck was proposed.

The recurrence of the process should be expected in patients with cholesteatoma. They require regular, periodical follow-up examination.

The presence of granulation changes is an unfavorable prognostic condition in the patients with ear drum perforation. In clinical practice, the criterion which often determines the application of either of the materials in myringoplasty are operator's preferences, as well as the availability of given material for transplanting.

Adenotomy with or without tonsillotomy is one of the most frequently performed surgical operations on children. Throughout many years the indications for this procedure were infringed. Nowadays the operation is being performed mainly because of the rhinological and/or otological indications for the pathologic hypertrophy of adenoid and/or palatine tonsils. There is also another indication although it is less frequently used. This indication is an occlusion disorder which needs to be treated orthodontically.
