Ballooning EsophagoscopyCategory: INTRODUCTION OF THE ESOPHAGOSCOPE Source: A Manual Of Peroral Endoscopy And Laryngeal Surgery By inserting the window plug shown in Fig. 6 the esophagus may be inflated and studied in the distended state. The folds are thus smoothed out and constrictions rendered more marked. Ether anesthesia is advocated by Mosher. The danger of respiratory arrest from pressure, should the patient be dyspneic, is always present unless the anesthetic be given by the intratracheal method. If necessary to use forceps the window cap is removed. If the perforated rubber diaphragm cap be substituted the esophagus can be reballooned, but work is no longer ocularly guided. The fluoroscope may be used but is so misleading as to render perforation and false passage likely. Next: Specular Esophagoscopy Previous: Difficulties Of Esophagoscopy
