Irfan Mohamad*

In the last two decades, there have been several changes in the field of head and neck surgery. Reconstructions using microvascular free flaps completely replaced earlier methods. More significantly, there has been a paradigm change toward attempting to re-establish normal function and appearance in addition to reliable wound closure to safeguard key structures. Using an evidence-based strategy whenever possible, the current research will propose an algorithmic approach to head and neck reconstruction of diverse subsites. Otolaryngology and head and neck surgery are two rapidly developing medical specialties. For a thorough understanding of diseases and useful clinical applications, a lot of new knowledge and techniques have been incorporated into the fundamental studies and clinical practises of otolaryngology and head and neck for the past few years. Just think about how many medical gadgets have recently been invented for facilitating procedures and surgery, such as newly created hearing aids and coagulative surgical instruments; the trend of newly generated technology is likely to be a continuing flow. In addition, a wide variety of diagnostic techniques and research methodologies have been developed to study the underlying causes and mechanisms of diseases. The abundance of cutting-edge technologies and methods in the disciplines of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery is a major blessing for both medical professionals and patients. The goal of this special issue is to highlight the variety and current advancements that support the various subspecialties of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery.
