The Evolving Role of Biologics in Otorhinolaryngology: Innovations, Applications, and Future Perspectives
Shrestha BL
Abstract: The introduction of biologics into otorhinolaryngology has marked a significant
shift in the management of complex and chronic ENT (Ear, Nose and Throat)
conditions. This review delves into the mechanisms, clinical applications, and
evidence supporting the use of biologics in treating disorders such as chronic
rhinosinusitis, allergic rhinitis, head and neck cancer, and autoimmune inner ear
disease. By examining current research and clinical trials, this article provides an
in-depth analysis of the transformative impact of biologics and discusses future
directions in this rapidly advancing field.
