pubmed:abstractText |
Examination of the laryngopharyngeal area is not always performed during routine upper gastrointestinal (UGI) endoscopy although initial studies reported pathological findings in 0.9-3.5% of cases. The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate the accuracy of screening the laryngopharyngeal area during routine UGI endoscopy, before insertion of endoscope into the oesophagus, to avoid a misinterpretation of trauma-related hyperaemia or erythema as signs of laryngitis.
