History Data: The first step for creating an independent discipline – Children’s Otorhinolaryngology in Ukraine was the initiation of a course of lectures in children’s INT-pathology by O.S Kolomiychenko in 1936, who at that period worked in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology at Kyiv Institute for Advanced Training of Physicians (KIATP). In September 1968 a course of children’s otorhinolaryngology was opened attached to the Department of Otorhhinolaryngology at KIATP by Prof. S.I. Mostovoy on the base of Kyiv Region Clinical Hospital. In January 1969 the independent Department of children’s otorhinolaryngology was created and due to this fact children’s otorhinolaryngology became an independent discipline.
