Video nasopharyngoscopy is a most valuable method of documenting the anatomy and pathophysiology of the nasopharynx. Such a permanent record is useful for diagnosis, patient counselling, resident teaching, and the monitoring of therapy in nasopharyngeal disorders. To evaluate the various techniques for assessment of the nasopharynx, the authors have attempted to systematically compare flexible and rigid endoscopes and mirror examination during video recording. The pros and cons of 1) transnasal fiberscopic, 2) transnasal telescopic, 3) transoral telescopic, and 4) transoral microscopic mirror examination methods for video nasopharyngoscopy are discussed.
视频鼻咽镜检查是记录鼻咽部解剖结构和病理生理的一种极有价值的方法。这样的永久性记录对于鼻咽部疾病的诊断、患者咨询、住院医师教学以及治疗监测都很有用。为了评估评估鼻咽部的各种技术,作者尝试在视频记录过程中系统地比较软性和硬性内镜以及间接鼻咽镜检查。讨论了视频鼻咽镜检查的以下四种方法的优缺点:1)经鼻纤维镜检查、2)经鼻电子镜检查、3)经口电子镜检查、4)经口间接鼻咽镜检查。
