Condition: Oxygen Inhalation Therapy Endoscopy · Sponsor: Poitiers University Hospital
Around 15,000 ENT cancers are diagnosed each year in France. The majority of these cancers will at one time or another require an Endoscopy of the Pharynx, Larynx and Esophagus (Endo-PLE or suspension laryngoscopy). Endoscopies of the Otorhinolaryngeal (ENT) sphere are common procedures. They consist of inserting a rigid laryngoscope through the mouth, allowing full exposure of the laryngeal sphere. They are performed in most cases as part of a swelling assessment, following CT scans, or following the discovery of a mass upon palpation of the patient. Unfortunately, these are aggressive cancers that subsequently require major surgery and additional treatment by radio or chemotherapy. This examination can also be performed on patients suffering from swallowing disorders, following the appearance of polyps, and this time not requiring an adjuvant to surgery but their removal. For all patients, these endo-PLE are performed in the operating room and require general anesthesia. This surgical procedure is now performed by performing two laryngoscopies. The first is used to maintain good pulmonary oxygenation by introducing an oxygen cannula, the second constitutes the surgical procedure itself. The oxygen cannula is placed through the nasal cavity, directly up to the entrance of the vocal cords. This procedure is not without risk both for the patient (risk of dental breakage and bleeding during laryngoscopy) but also for the surgeon, because the cannula itself can obstruct his visi…
