Rochester General Hospital
Ear, Nose & Throat Surgery
Ear, nose and throat (ENT) surgery are performed on-site at Rochester General Hospital (RGH) in Rochester, New York. Our Otolaryngologists and ENT specialists work as a team to correctly diagnose conditions and determine if surgery is necessary. If surgery is necessary, our board-certified ENT surgeons are trained in the latest surgical techniques, including minimally invasive surgery, that maximize successful outcomes while minimizing recovery time.
Common ENT Surgeries
The following procedures are routinely performed on both children and adults, at Rochester General Hospital's ENT Surgery Center:
- Ear Surgery – Most ear surgeries are performed to address hearing impairment and hearing loss. Common procedures include a stapedectomy, tympanoplasty, and cochlear implants.
- Nose or Nasal Surgery – Nose surgery often aims to correct sinus problems which can be caused by conditions such as sinitus. Nose surgery is also an option for deviated septums and chronic congestion.
- Throat Surgery – Typically, throat surgery helps correct conditions that effect the body's immune system. Common throat surgeries include removal of the tonsils (tonsillectomy) and adenoids (adenoidectomy).
Reconstructive and cosmetic surgery involving the ear, nose and throat are also performed at RGH. Visit our plastic surgery section learn more.
