Abstract
AbstractA 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.In 28 patients, a Celestin tube was thus inserted. The method involved only a few complications. It can be recommended as an alternative to existing operative methods for endoesophageal intubation.
