    Abstract:
    Fibreoptic endoscopy is now established in the investigation of upper gastrointestinal disease. We report our findings in a large series of endoscopic procedures (6386) mostly in Middle Eastern Arabs, and compare the results obtained in Western patients. We find fibreoptic endoscopy to be feasible, safe, acceptable and effective.
