At RMC, ear, nose and throat surgery covers a wide spectrum: whether it's hearing loss, nasal breathing difficulties or even sore throats. These complaints are often not only a physical burden for our patients, but also a psychological one. Our qualified doctors offer quick and effective solutions, from diagnosis to the necessary interventions and regular check-ups. Procedures are performed under general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia.
Dr. László Balogh and Dr. Andrej Banik are our highly experienced specialists who are at the disposal of our patients!

The proper functioning of the ear canal plays a massive role in preventing middle ear disease by ensuring adequate ventilation and pressure equalization of the middle ear. The procedure involves dilating the auricle using a balloon catheter while the patient is under anesthesia. After dilation, the middle ear is ventilated through the auricle, which helps prevent ear infections and improves hearing.
The surgery aims to effectively treat chronic, non-healing sinusitis (such as sinusitis or frontal sinusitis) and nasal polyposis. It helps to restore free passage through the nasal passages, ensuring normal nasal breathing. The aim is to reduce inflammation, relieve symptoms, and improve the patient's quality of life, as sinus problems can seriously impact breathing and general well-being.
If skin lesions diagnosed by a dermatologist occur in the ear, nose, or head and neck area, they must be removed. The operation is performed under local anesthesia. The lesion is excised throughout the skin thickness with a scalpel using a suitable safety edge, avoiding complications. The operation aims to remove the skin lesion, minimize complications, and promote rapid healing without scarring.
Nasal septal deformities are common, but surgery is only needed if the deformity is causing difficulty breathing through the nose, recurrent respiratory infections, sinusitis, ear problems, or headaches. The surgery involves removing some of the cartilage and bone from the nasal septum and fixing the septum in the midline. If necessary, the nasal concha can be reduced. After the operation, a nasal swab is inserted and removed the next day, so the patient spends the first night at RMC. After the procedure, patients experience improved nasal breathing and reduced recurrent respiratory problems.
Nasal tonsillectomy aims to remove or reduce the size of an abnormally enlarged nasopharyngeal tonsil to eliminate breathing difficulties such as nasal congestion, mouth breathing, snoring, and sleeping apnea. The procedure is particularly indicated in children, where an enlarged tonsil can cause ear and respiratory problems and frequent infections. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia through the mouth, using a unique electric suction device to ensure hemostasis. After the procedure, the airways are cleared, and breathing and sleeping quality improves, reducing infections.
The mucus accumulating during an otitis media with effusion (OME) can lead to hearing loss and speech development problems. The symptoms are ringing in the ears, clicking, snoring, and imbalances. It occurs between the ages of 2 and 5 most commonly. If the secretions are not absorbed within 3 months, an eardrum ventilation tube may need to be inserted. The operation is performed under general anesthesia, a small incision is made in the eardrum, and the tube is placed to provide ventilation to the middle ear. A follow-up examination is required after 6 weeks.
