This book offers comprehensive and up-to-date information about propolis and its applications in otorhinolaryngology. Propolis, a natural resin produced by bees, has been shown to possess antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Despite numerous publications discussing its benefits, the authors' goal is to compile scientifically proven data into an academic resource that can aid in further research in the field of propolis and its applications. With a focus on evidence-based information, this volume presents only preclinical and clinical studies, prioritizing proven effects over potential therapeutic benefits. The initial chapters are dedicated to general information on bees, hives, honey, and propolis. The following chapters delve into the antiseptic, antibacterial, antiviral, and antimycotic effects of propolis, followed by more specific discussions on topics such as sinus and pulmonary effects. Other chapters explore the effects of propolis on conditions like rhinosinusitis, nasal blockage, and allergic rhinitis. The final chapter focuses on Anatolian Propolis and its distinct characteristics. Given the rising popularity of propolis, this updated reference should be an essential addition to the libraries of otolaryngologists, head and neck surgeons, general practitioners, and all individuals seeking information to understand the benefits of propolis and its relevance in modern healthcare practices.
