[Structure of causes of mortality of patients with otorhinolaryngologic diseases]
Abstract:
42 lethal outcomes have been registered for 9 years in the ENT department of the Andizhan regional hospital and in the department of the head and neck tumors of the regional cancer hospital. Among the causes of the patients' death, ENT cancer ranked the first (73.6%) followed by intracranial otogenic complications. The least frequent causes were esophageal and respiratory foreign bodies, acute stenotic laryngotracheitis. The averaged annual lethality was stable (0.25%). A further decrease of lethality depends on fitting out updated medical units and instruments, on perfection of the personal's skill, on earlier hospitalization of priority cases with ENT diseases.
