Specializations

Otology and Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss

The investigator concentrates on therapeutic strategies for acute auditory impairment and inner‑ear disorders.

  • idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss
  • acquired angioedema due to C1 inhibitor deficiency
  • autoimmune inner‑ear disease
  • vestibular dysfunction associated with inflammatory conditions
  • sensorineural hearing loss secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus

Research emphasizes rapid restoration of auditory function and protection of cochlear structures.

Chronic Rhinosinusitis and Nasal Polyps

Focused on long‑term management of persistent sinonasal inflammation and polyp formation.

  • chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps
  • chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps
  • allergic rhinoconjunctivitis
  • refractory sinus disease in immunocompromised patients
  • post‑operative sinus healing after endoscopic sinus surgery

Therapeutic aims include reducing mucosal edema, preventing recurrence, and improving airway patency.

Head and Neck Oncology

Engaged in clinical studies targeting malignant tumors of the upper aerodigestive tract.

  • head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
  • oropharyngeal cancer
  • laryngeal carcinoma
  • salivary gland neoplasms
  • advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Efforts focus on integrating systemic therapies with organ‑preserving surgical techniques.

Allergic and Inflammatory Upper Airway Disease

Investigates immune‑mediated conditions affecting the nasal cavity and pharynx.

  • atopic dermatitis with nasal involvement
  • allergic fungal sinusitis
  • immune‑mediated rhinitis
  • chronically inflamed adenoidal tissue
  • environmental trigger‑related upper airway inflammation

Therapeutic development emphasizes biologic agents and targeted anti‑inflammatory pathways.

Voice, Swallowing, and Laryngeal Function

Addresses disorders that compromise phonation and deglutition.

  • functional voice disorders
  • laryngopharyngeal reflux affecting vocal folds
  • post‑intubation laryngeal injury
  • neuromuscular dysphagia in autoimmune disease
  • vocal fold paralysis secondary to systemic illness

Clinical work aims to restore vocal quality and safe swallowing through pharmacologic and rehabilitative measures.
