General Description

The Clinic deals with the diagnoses, counseling and surgical treatment of children up to age 15 suffering from various ear, nose and throat (ENT) diseases.

Specialists in the Clinic use advanced optical radiology equipment to diagnose diseases of the nasal cavities, pharynx, vocal chords and ears.

The Unit of Pediatric ENT at the Dana Children's Hospital treats children with a wide range of diseases and disorders:

Congenital and genetic disorders related to the ENT system, including the head and neck
Speech and hearing disorders, hoarseness problems
Sleep disorders caused by blockage of the airways, such as respiratory arrest during sleep
Tracheotomies
Chronic ear infections and complications
Chronic sinusitis
Breathing disorders
Benign and malignant tumors in the ENT and head-neck systems in children
Other inflammations in the ENT systems in children
Swallowing and drooling problems
Checking upper airways with optical fibers

A new instrument, for treating a loss of hearing as a result of accumulation of fluids in the ear, has recently been introduced to the ENT clinic at the Dana Children's Hospital. Doctors predict that this instrument might replace the conventional "grommet" operations. For details click here.

The unit runs three clinic days and two surgery days every week.
