About


ENT Instruments is written and maintained by Dr. Lakshmi Ananth.

This blog started out as a resource to help familiarize our own students with instruments and equipment routinely used in ear, nose and throat surgery. We have now decided to share it with the medical student community at large and hope it helps you.

Learning the names and uses of surgical instruments need not be a last-minute, one-day-before-the-exam endeavour. Read about one instrument a day or learn what instruments are used for a particular operation. Each post also includes additional information that may help you answer questions asked in your viva exam.
