A concise, early‑20th‑century guide to the practical side of peroral endoscopy, this manual walks readers through the essential tools and techniques for inspecting the lower airway and food passages. Detailed illustrations and a handful of color plates help visualize the design of lighted tubes, bronchoscope and esophagoscope tips, and the delicate maneuvers required to keep the airway clear. The author’s emphasis on “educating the eye and the fingers” makes it a hands‑on resource for anyone learning to navigate these narrow, illuminated pathways.
The text begins with a thorough inventory of instruments, followed by an anatomy overview that frames the endoscopic view of the larynx, trachea, bronchi and esophagus. It then guides clinicians through patient preparation, anesthesia considerations, and the initial steps of direct laryngoscopy and bronchoscope insertion. Subsequent chapters introduce strategies for handling foreign bodies and early approaches to benign growths, illustrating how early practitioners tackled common challenges in airway and esophageal care.
