Overview
Inflammations of upper respiratory pathways belong to frequent diseases. These arecaused by various agents including viruses, bacteria, allergens, physical and chemical pathologicalagents. Symptoms of these diseases are similar, but the course and severity of individual inflammationsvary from a light course to severe inflammations with the possibility of life threateningcomplications. That iswhy an early and correct differential diagnosis, followed by adequate therapy,is so much needed. Drug therapy and surgical treatment were previously strictly separated andsometime even contraposed.
Key words:
