[Indices of biomedical bibliography in otolaryngology]

Since 19th century the trends to medical specialization produced an increase of otorhinolaryngological publications. Due to the impossibility for the otorhinolaryngologist to gather all the medical literature, indexes and medical bibliographies have become an essential tool to physicians and medical investigators, helping them to select relevant literature. In the present work we describe the most interesting indexes of biomedical bibliography for the otorhinolaryngologist. Also, we give a list of the seventy most prestigious otorhinolaryngological journals in the world and the repertories in which they are included.
