Global nod for UM surgeon’s atlas

Labour of love: It took Prof Prepageran four years to co-author the book, which covers the entire range of skull base surgery.

AN ear, nose and throat (ENT) surgeon who is also an academic at Universiti Malaya (UM) Medicine Faculty, Prof Datuk Dr Prepageran Narayanan is well known for his passion for treating patients, as well as teaching medical students and ENT fellows.

His expertise is so sought after that his surgical teaching videos, which were posted on UM otorhinolaryngology department’s specialised YouTube channel for surgical education, have received overwhelming response, with a dissection video garnering over 214,000 views.
