Bronchoscopy and Esophagoscopy A Manual of Peroral Endoscopy and Laryngeal Surgery He was ingeniously fed by esophageal tubes and rectal enemata; in three weeks speech and deglutition were restored. Anomalies and Curiosities of Medicine It is always wise to push the therapeutic test with potassium iodid and especially mercury in any case of esophageal ulceration unassociated with stasis. Bronchoscopy and Esophagoscopy A Manual of Peroral Endoscopy and Laryngeal Surgery Chronic esophagitis is to be controlled by esophageal lavage, the regulation of the diet to liquefiable foods and the administration of bismuth subnitrate. Bronchoscopy and Esophagoscopy A Manual of Peroral Endoscopy and Laryngeal Surgery This is explained by the trickling of liquified food from the esophageal reservoir into the stomach as the spasm intermittently relaxes, this occurring usually before a serious state of inanition supervenes. Bronchoscopy and Esophagoscopy A Manual of Peroral Endoscopy and Laryngeal Surgery The larynx, lips, tongue, and pharynx also, are usually paralyzed in esophageal paralysis of bulbar origin. Bronchoscopy and Esophagoscopy A Manual of Peroral Endoscopy and Laryngeal Surgery Shortly afterward the esophageal tube was removed and recovery was virtually complete.

Bronchoscopy and Esophagoscopy A Manual of Peroral Endoscopy and Laryngeal Surgery Many cases of intermittent esophageal stenosis supposed to be spasmodic are due to organic narrowness of lumen plus lodgement of food, obstructive in itself and in the esophagitis resulting from its presence. Bronchoscopy and Esophagoscopy A Manual of Peroral Endoscopy and Laryngeal Surgery Under esophagoscopic bouginage the prognosis is favorable as to ultimate cure, the duration of the treatment varying with the number of strictures, the tightness, and the extent of the fibrous tissue-changes in the esophageal wall.
