Peroral endoscopy and laryngeal surgery . osition, or that shown in Fig. the head is thrown backward (as in the usual or in the Rose position) theanterior convexity of the cervical spine is transmitted to the trachea of which theaxis is thus deviated.

The anterior deviation of the lower third of the esopliagus showsthe anatomical basis for tlic autliors high-low position for esophagoscopy. ( to 152). perpendicular. Their long axis passes backward as well as downwardfollowing the general direction of the thoracic spine (Fig. (il). There-fore, if we throw the patients head backwards we cause an anterior con-vexity of the cervical spine, and with it the esophagus and trachea, asshown in the radiograph. Fig. GG.
