Accomplishment and opportunity in geriatric otolaryngology
ENT Journal, 10/20/09

Chalian AA et al. – Geriatric otolaryngology is a relatively new subspecialty. Many of the events in its history are recorded in the literature.1–7 That history began with the early recognition of the need for such a subspecialty by a few visionary otolaryngologists more than 25 years ago. Since then, the subspecialty has grown and begun to take on the trappings of a recognized field. Those early visionaries have become the senior leaders of the subspecialty and have mentored others who have taken on the responsibilities of developing a vibrant organization and devoted time to a variety of activities essential to the further development of geriatric otolaryngology.
