Regardless of outstanding developments in the endoscopic field, laryngopharyngeal lesions are generally considered as a field of otolaryngology, and thus it is thought that not a lot of gastrointestinal endoscopists commonly take interest in these lesions during the upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examinations. Therefore, here in this thesis, I reviewed the availability of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in laryngopharyngeal area, normal structures of laryngopharynx, and the lesions that can be observed with the standard upper gastrointestinal endoscopic procedure.
尽管内镜领域有显著进展,但喉咽病变通常被视为耳鼻喉科的范畴,因此人们认为在进行上消化道内镜检查时,没有多少胃肠内镜医生会普遍关注这些病变。所以,在本论文中,我回顾了上消化道内镜在喉咽区域的应用、喉咽的正常结构以及通过标准上消化道内镜检查程序能够观察到的病变。
