The Roman's did it, I have a vague recollection of it having occurred in Egypt as well.

Otolaryngology is actually ears and throat.

Craniofacial is head and face.

May even come under neurology.

Hi Anna,
I have absolutely no medical knowledge at all but if you copy and paste

otolaryngology-head and neck surgery

into Google, there are nearly 50,000 hits for the UK and over a million worldwide.

It seems to cover ear, nose, throat, head and neck surgery.
