Abstract

Esophagoscopy is the standard examination standard for evaluation, diagnosis, screening and surveillance of esophageal diseases. Although it is often done, esophagoscopy costs a lot, is inconvenient, and risks complications, including cardiopulmonary complications because patients usually require routine sedation in the implementation of conventional esophagoscopic procedures. The purpose of this study is to get an overview of the results of the implementation of transnasal esophagoscopy in Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Division of Broncho-oesophagology, Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya, between 1 September 2012 and 30 April 2015. This study was a retrospective descriptive study with a population of all patients undergoing esophagoscopic examinations during this period. Data is taken from medical records of new patients undergoing transnasal esophagoscopy. Inclusion criteria were all patients who had been tested for transnasal esophagoscopy, and exclusion criteria were incomplete medical record data. There were 35 patients who underwent transnasal esophagoscopy examination at Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Division of Broncho-oesophagology, Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabayaduring the study period.
