title: Endoscopy of the nose and nasopharynx.
abstract: Endoscopy of the nose and nasopharynx using rigid endoscopes and the zoom-laryngoscope-epipharyngoscope after v. Stuckrad enhances the diagnostics in these regions considerably. These "inaccessible" regions, remote structures and niches can easily be visualized by angle-endoscopes with magnification. Not only diagnostic procedures are facilitated but also some therapeutical manipulations. Especially for the early detection of cancer as for follow-up control and photo-documentation the endoscopes are of particular importance.
