ENT endoscope have slowly become indispensable equipment in otolaryngology. They can perform detailed inspections of the ear, nasal cavity, and throat, and use matching surgical instruments to perform surgical treatment of ear, nose and throat diseases, reaching beyond the reach of traditional surgery Effect, let's understand the principle and clinical application of lower ear nose throat endoscope.
The principle of ENT endoscope
The ENT endoscope can easily pass through the narrow nasal cavity and nasal passages and other structures, allowing medical staff to directly inspect the patient's lesions, improving the accuracy of the diagnosis of nose and throat diseases, and reducing the burden of the inspection process on the patient's pain. At the same time, the matching surgical instruments can also be used for delicate treatment of sinusitis, nasal polyps and other diseases, so that the operation can achieve effects that cannot be achieved by traditional surgery. The method of using ear, nose and throat endoscopes for surgery has begun to adopt the principle of minimally invasive surgery, which can ensure that medical staff perform precise surgical operations under direct vision and real-time monitoring, thereby making the surgery more accurate and effective, while ensuring the curative effect while reducing Collateral damage to the patient.
Clinical application of ENT endoscope:
Ear disease examination: acute suppurative otitis media, chronic suppurative otitis media, catarrhal otitis media, tinnitus, sudden deafness, etc.
Nasal disease examination: acute rhinitis, chronic rhinitis, allergic rhinitis, hypertrophic rhinitis, sinusitis, atrophic rhinitis, nasal polyps, nasal septum deviation, epistaxis, etc.;
Throat disease examination: acute pharyngitis, chronic pharyngitis, dry pharyngitis, atrophic pharyngitis, hypertrophic pharyngitis, acute tonsillitis, chronic tonsillitis, glandular hypertrophy, vocal cord polyps, vocal cord nodules, childhood snoring, adult snoring;
It can be used in the following areas according to the different surgical sites of the patient, namely: endoscopic nasal cavity surgery, endoscopic sinus surgery, endoscopic nasal adjacent structure related operations, etc.; and in terms of disease types, This technology can be used in diseases such as turbinate hypertrophy, turbinate vesicles, and turbinate structure. As the technology of nasal and throat endoscopy continues to mature, this technology is used in acute pharyngitis, chronic pharyngitis, atrophic pharyngitis, hypertrophic pharyngitis, Good results can also be achieved in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases such as chronic tonsillitis, glandular hypertrophy, vocal cord polyps, vocal cord nodules, and snoring.
The above briefly introduces the principle and clinical application of ENT endoscopy, and more related knowledge of ENT endoscopy, welcome to inquire!
