Resumo
Endoscopy is a visual examination of internal structures with the aid of an endoscope. In some cases, it is possible to define the etiology of the diseases and the patient's response to a particular disease, helping to define specific prognoses and therapies. It is minimally invasive, reducing surgical time and consequently the duration of anesthesia, which is desirable mainly in debilitated patients and is indicated for visualization and / or sampling of an organ or site with additional diagnostic information. In the present case, the objective was to perform endoscopic examination in a boa constrictor. This patient was anesthetized for digestive endoscopy and sample collection for histopathological examinations that allowed the definitive diagnosis of chronic histiolymphoplasmacytic esophagitis of probable bacterial origin. It was concluded that this technique made it possible, in a non-traumatic way, to obtain samples that, on histopathological examination, determined the definitive diagnosis.(AU)
