Innovative Treatments
We offer the latest treatments for ear, nose and throat disorders, including:
Image-guided endoscopic surgery for the nasal cavity and the
ears:A less invasive technique that may result in faster recovery
and less risk of facial scarring and infection.
Balloon
Sinuplasty™ for treatment of chronic sinusitis: An
effective and less invasive way to open up blocked sinus
passages with faster recovery and less risk of scarring and infection.
Botox
injections: Used for treating voice disorders such as spasmodic
dysphonia, a rare condition that causes the voice to have a strained,
broken or breathy quality.
Cochlear implants: Life-changing for those with
hearing loss, these surgically implanted electronic devices provide a
sense of sound. At UVA, we also offer counseling before surgery and
rehabilitation to help patients learn to work with their implants.
Repairs for congenital aural atresia: We offer implantable devices or a corrective surgery option developed here at UVA.
Tinnitus Clinic: One
of just 40 clinics in the nation to offer retraining therapy for
tinnitus, hyperacusis and phonophobia. The therapy retrains the brain to ignore, or adapt to, the
unrelenting noise so that there is no longer a conscious awareness of
the tinnitus. Other treatments offered include noise-generator fittings
that emit a soothing white noise to filter out the tinnitis.
Vestibular
and Balance Center:State-of-the-art diagnosis and expertise
for patients
suffering from dizziness, vertigo and imbalance problems related to
inner ear dysfunctions.
