A technique for teaching and photo-documentation of direct endoscopic rigid oesophagoscopy

Abstract

Direct oesophagoscopy is largely a diagnostic procedure performed for a variety of symptoms (e.g. unilateral otalgia or odonophagia) or as part of a panendoscopy to exclude a synchronous primary; therefore good visualisation of abnormal mucosa is essential. The current standard oesophagoscopy technique involves direct visualisation from approximately 25cm down a narrow, illuminated oesophagoscope limiting visualisation of abnormal mucosa. Usually performed by a single operator, the technique is difficult to teach, as the trainee is unable to visualise what the trainer is seeing endoluminally and visa versa.
