    Abstract:
    The range of visual examination and therapeutic procedures in the field of ear, nose and throat surgery has been expanded by the combination of the flexible fiberscope with the rigid telescope. The following are the advantages of the flexible fiberscope: 1. Increased accessibility, 2. less patient discomfort, 3. easier insertion technique, 4. low incidence of the accidental injuries, 5. simplified documentation by photography. In addition, these procedures can be performed on a routine and outpatient basis.
