title: [Present trends in endoscopy in otorhinolaryngology].
abstract: The author emphasizes new endoscopic trends in otorhinolaryngology, in particular rhinoscopy with microsurgery of the lateral nasal wall, sinuscopy and the use of lasers in microlaryngoscopy. Attention is also drawn to the specific position of endoscopy in otorhinolaryngology, using not only flexible and rigid technique but also possibilities of concurrent examination of the respiratory and deglutition pathways--i. e. so-called double endoscopy. The possibility of a comprehensive endoscopic examination of the deglutition and respiratory pathways led also to the formulation of the principle of panendoscopy the importance of which for oncological diagnosis is already generally accepted.
