Foreword 1
This is a great pleasure and an honor to be the Foreword writer of this monograph written and edited by Prof. Gauthier Desuter and his coauthors. There are already many comprehensive textbooks on swallowing disorders but not always practical for the daily ENT practitioner. This is exactly what this monograph is all about: providing efficient guidelines for assessing, managing, and treating difficult cases. After having gone through this book, the reader will know what is important and what is superficial or optional. It gives also a good flavor on the present knowledge in Europe. This monograph is based on long-term practice and experience. This experience is a major issue in Laryngology where this is so difficult to obtain evidence-based recommendations. One has to trust the ones who provide their teaching. This is definitely a book that one should have in his/her bookshelf. Centre Hospitalier du Luxembourg Luxembourg
