Abstract Abridged
Family practice physicians often encounter recurrent upper respiratory tract pathology. The physician's training involves mastering a course in otolaryngology. Still, this course lacks the necessary detailing concerning age-related features of various structures of the upper respiratory tract, congenital pathology in children, and interdisciplinary issues. The topics of selective disciplines are devoted to detailing highly specialized issues. Elective disciplines in the Otorhinolaryngology cycle are chosen not only by students - future otolaryngologists but also by potential doctors of family medicine, therapy, and pediatrics since the prevalence of ENT pathology among therapeutic and pediatric patients is very high. Therefore, introducing elective disciplines for applicants' interest and practicing doctors of related specialties, forming their professional level, is fully justified.
