This book from All India Publishers & Distributors is an English medium (अंग्रेज़ी माध्यम) title by Prof. K.K. Ramalingam, Dr. B. Sreeramamurty and Dr. Ravi Ramalingam, covering otorhinolaryngology — diseases of the ear, nose and throat (कान, नाक एवं गला) — for undergraduate medical students. Now in its fifth edition, it is a long-established name among Indian ENT texts, particularly in the southern medical colleges where it has been recommended for years.
The title states its intent. This is a short practice — a full ENT text rather than a set of notes, but written at a length a student can realistically finish. ENT sits in a crowded third year alongside PSM and ophthalmology, and books in this subject succeed or fail on whether a student reaches the last chapter. The treatment runs across the anatomy and physiology of the ear, hearing assessment and deafness, diseases of the external, middle and inner ear, the nose and paranasal sinuses, the pharynx, tonsils and adenoids, the larynx and airway, the oesophagus and tracheobronchial tree, and the head and neck conditions the undergraduate course requires — each set out with symptoms, examination findings, investigations and management in the form an examination answer takes.
The book is illustrated throughout with clinical photographs, endoscopic images and diagrams, which is what allows a student to recognise in the ward and the viva what they have read on the page. Prof. K.K. Ramalingam is a widely known ENT teacher in India, and the involvement of Dr. Ravi Ramalingam has carried the book forward into its later editions. It works as the main reading text for the subject, paired with a practical or clinical methods book for the instruments, cases and viva. The whole book is written in English in the Roman script.
