Method of endoscopic esophageal intubation using a rigid esophagoscope

JA Gaer, C Blauth, ER Townsend and SW Fountain
Harefield Hospital, Middlesex, United Kingdom.

We have developed a method of endoscopic intubation that reduces to a minimum the elements of the procedure that have to be performed "blind." The use of this method has been associated with a reduction in perforation rates when compared with other series.
