ENT, or ear, nose and throat medicine is the basic medical specialty. The beginnings fall into the mid-19th century, when otolaryngology gradually developed from otology and laryngology. As one of the first medical disciplines, ENT implemented endoscopic techniques and an operating microscope. Surgical procedures in recent decades cover essentially the entire area of the neck and splanchnocranium, therefore an adjunct head and neck surgery was added to ENT. Knowledge of ENT is indispensable for general practitioners and pediatricians, because they are frequently the first who meet patients with inflammations and tumors in the ENT area. ENT has close relationship to neurology, a common platform is otoneurology, to maxifacial surgery, neurosurgery, a common platform is a skull base surgery, and to ophthalmology. The specifics of the treatment and rehabilitation of patients with hearing loss and deafness, voice and speech disorders lead to development of a phoniatry, follow up specialty. The Department of ear, nose and throat of the 2nd medical faculty is specialized in children's population up to 19 years, which is beneficial in particular for future pediatricians. Practical knowledge of an adult otolaryngology students obtain in cooperation with the “adult” Departments of ENT, head and neck surgery of the 1st medical faculty in Motol hospital and 3rd medical faculty in The Central military hospital in Prague 6.
