Sequential oesophago-bronchoscopy.
Combined sequential oesophago-bronchoscopy with the same fibre-optic instrument is described, and complete safety of this procedure emphasised. It has the great advantage of reducing hospitalisation time for the patients, usually avoiding general anaesthesia, and considerably reducing costs, without prejudicing the patient's safety and interests.
