Intraoropharyngeal U-turn method using transnasal esophagogastroduodenoscopy.
The more progress that has been made in endoscopy, the more superficial cancers have been found in the head and neck regions [1–4]. There are, however, some areas that are difficult to observe on transoral esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD). In particular, only a tangential view of the radix linguae is obtained with transoral EGD. In this report, we present the procedure for an intraoropharyngeal...
