Abstract
129 Professors in charge to internal medicine, in 46 medical schools, were interviewed concerning the Bronchoesophagology.
69 of them, 54%, answered.
Majority of them denys the new independent bronchoesophagology as a new department. On the other hand, however, they emphasize the necessity of bronchoesophagology as the clinical subdivision.
Generally speaking, little of bronchoesophagology has been interested by internists.
The general tendency in medicine today is to specialize more in detail, depending on the each organ.
Regardless of the opinion of elder senior doctors, the bronchoesophagology should be one of the speciality with aids of medicine, surgery, radiology, anesthesiology and otolaryngology.
The Bronchoesophagology is well introduced in the book of “Bronchoesophagology” and bronchoesophagological clinic is one of the clinical departments and deals mainly with thorough observation of endoscopies.
