چکیده
A. KERR GRANT, T. M. ALDOR, E. CURTIN, W. K. NOLAN The Lopresti fiberoptic oesophagoscope was described. The advantages of the instrument were its relative comfort to the patient, the ease of passage, the excellent magnified image of the oesophagus, and the avoidance of a general anaesthetic. Early experience and diagnosis had proved successful in the demonstration of oesophagitis, carcinoma, stricture, and oesophageal reflux. The instrument had also been of use in examination of the stomach as far as the antral region and the cardio-oesophageal junction could also be well seen. A colour cine film was shown to demonstrate views obtained of the oesophagus.
