title: [Endoscopic surgery of the upper aerodigestive tract in children].
abstract: In the treatment of congenital and acquired diseases in the newborn, infant and older children, increasing use is being made of endoscopic surgery in the nose, paranasal sinuses and nasopharynx, and endolaryngeal microsurgery in the larynx and pharynx. In recent years new technical developments in the field of endoscopy, together with the use of various types of laser, have either made endoscopic surgery possible in the first place, or have facilitated and improved it.
