title: Clinical neurologic disorders in children with special otorhinolaryngologic relationships.
abstract: The anatomic (and functional) relationship of otorhinologic structures to the CNS has a potential for altered vascular supply, penetration by bacterial agents, and impaired gas exchange. The pathophysiologic relationship at times may be subtle or occult as indicated by examples. An awareness of potential relationships is critical for proper diagnosis and management.
