OBJECTIVE: To create visual animated demonstrations of certain otorhinolaryngologic concepts and surgeries that can aid learning of students and ORL residents.METHODS: Several otorhinolaryngologic surgical procedures and pathophysiologic concepts were represented through two dimensional images. For every concept or procedure, a series of images was drawn and manipulated using the software Adobe Photoshop CS4. The series of images were then put into animation using the software Morpheus Photo Animation Suite v3.15.RESULT: The end results were demonstrations of otorhinolaryngologic concepts and surgical procedures in movie (.AVI) format.CONCLUSION: Concepts and surgeries in the field of otorhinolaryngology are usually explained or documented using texts or simple images. The generated animated demonstration of these ideas can aid in the learning of the ORL specialist.
