| Popis: | A new method for inserting endoesophageal tubes is described. In patients with stenosing, inoperable esophageal malignancies, a passage through the neoplastic masses must be secured to avoid dysphagia and salivation. By first dilating the tumor lumen with the Eder-Puestow apparatus and then inserting the correctly cut tube using endoscopic equipment, an operation can be avoided. |
