[A new magnifying laryngoscope (epipharyngoscope) (author's transl)].

A new developed laryngoscope (epipharyngoscope) is demonstrated, which comes now to production stage after three years of experimental work. The endoscope-a high capacity optical system with an angled direction of view-allows a thorough inspection and easy fotodocumentation of the larynx and epipharynx without molesting the patient. Even under difficult conditions regarding the anatomy the findings can be inspected as a survey or under magnification, which is done-technically an innovation-by moving an integrated lens system of the endoscope.
