They knew an adequate number of diseases of the ear, nose and throat and treated them with a plethora of drugs and some of them, especially tonsillitis and tonsillar abscess, with operations. The writer, based on the texts of the Byzantine historians and chroniclers, presents information previously unknown. This includes analysis of cases of an epidemic of angina, speech defects, instances of otitis, epistaxis, ulcer of the mouth, acute laryngitis or pharyngitis and psychogenic aphonia. Most cases concern emperors and other prominent figures of the State and Church. This information complements, from the historical point of view, the scientific knowledge of the medical writersin the field of otorhinolaryngology.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0022215100135340","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,11,30]],"date-time":"2007-11-30T05:14:10Z","timestamp":1196399650000},"page":"913-917","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Otorhinolaryngological diseases in Byzantium (A.D. 324\u20131453): information from non-medical literary sources"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"110","author":[{"given":"J.","family":"Lascaratos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,6,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref006","first-page":"223","volume-title":"Byzantine Literary","volume":"II","author":"Hunger","year":"1992"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref013","first-page":"190","volume-title":"Corpus Medicorum Graecorum","volume":"I","author":"Raeder","year":"1933"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref012","first-page":"79","volume-title":"Alexander von Tralles","author":"Puschmann","year":"1963"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref017","first-page":"145","volume-title":"Theodosii Meliteni qui fertur Chronographia","author":"Tafel","year":"1859"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref011","first-page":"352","volume-title":"Corpus Scriptorum Historiae Byzantinae","volume":"II","author":"Pinder","year":"1844"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref003","first-page":"154","volume-title":"Chirurgie de Paul d'\u00c9gine","author":"Briau","year":"1855"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref014","first-page":"292","volume-title":"Corpus Scriptorum Historiae Byzantinae","volume":"I","author":"Schopen","year":"1829"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref001","first-page":"619","volume-title":"Corpus Scriptorum Historiae Byzantinae","author":"Bekker","year":"1838"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref015","first-page":"601","volume-title":"Corpus Scriptorum Historiae Byzantinae","volume":"II","author":"Schopen","year":"1830"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref007","first-page":"23","volume-title":"Corpus Scriptorum Historiae Byzantinae","author":"Lachmann","year":"1834"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref002","first-page":"72","volume-title":"Corpus Scriptorum Historiae Byzantinae","volume":"II","author":"Bekker","year":"1839"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref004","first-page":"644","volume-title":"Scriptorum Historiae Byzantinae","volume":"III","author":"B\u00fcttner","year":"1897"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref010","first-page":"476","volume-title":"Aetii Amideni Libri Medicinales V\u2013VIII","author":"Olivieri","year":"1950"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref020","first-page":"2074","volume-title":"Cecil Textbook of Medicine","volume":"II","author":"Wyngaarden","year":"1992"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref016","first-page":"42","volume-title":"Corpus Scriptorum Historiae Byzantinae","volume":"I","author":"Schopen","year":"1839"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref009","first-page":"33","volume-title":"Corpus Scriptorum Historiae Byzantinae","author":"Meineke","year":"1836"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref008","first-page":"458","volume-title":"Diseases of the Byzantine Emperors","author":"Lascaratos","year":"1995"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref018","first-page":"27","volume-title":"Corpus Fontium Historiae Byzantinae","author":"Thurn","year":"1973"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref005","first-page":"155","volume-title":"Anecdota Medica Graeca","author":"Ermerins","year":"1840"},{"key":"S0022215100135340_ref019","first-page":"309","article-title":"Sorcery and medicine in Byzantium","volume":"9","author":"Troianos","year":"1995","journal-title":"Themes of Obstetrics and Gynaecology"}],"container-title":["The Journal of Laryngology &amp; Otology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/S0022215100135340","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,12]],"date-time":"2019-05-12T16:30:04Z","timestamp":1557678604000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/product\/identifier\/S0022215100135340\/type\/journal_article"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1996,10]]},"references-count":20,"journal-issue":{"issue":"10","published-print":{"date-parts":[[1996,10]]}},"alternative-id":["S0022215100135340"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/s0022215100135340","relation":{},"ISSN":["0022-2151","1748-5460"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0022-2151","type":"print"},{"value":"1748-5460","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[1996,10]]}}}
