Epiphrenic esophageal diverticula
Epiphrenic esophageal diverticula (EED) are rare. The estimated incidence is about 1:500,000/year. EED usually result from a combination of esophageal obstruction, functional or mechanical and a point of weakness of the muscularis propria. Most of the symptoms are unspecific, but dysphagia is most common. Chest radiograph, barium esophagogram, endoscopy and manometry are diagnostic tools. The t...
متن کاملSurgical Management of Epiphrenic Diverticula in the Minimally Invasive Era
BACKGROUND Epiphrenic diverticula are rare outpouchings of the distal esophagus that infrequently require surgical intervention for the treatment of symptoms. In cases where surgical therapy is indicated, the traditional approach is through a thoracotomy. Advances in minimally invasive techniques have led to thoracoscopic and more recently laparoscopic management of epiphrenic diverticula. The ...

متن کاملEpiphrenic and middle esophageal diverticula: A rare cause of esophageal dysphagia. Esophageal high resolution manometry findings.
Esophageal diverticula (ED) constitute a rare pathology, with a prevalence ranging between 0.06% and 4% (1,2). According to its anatomical location it is classified as pharyngo-esophageal, middle esophageal and epiphrenics ED (3). The pathophysiologic mechanism differs in diverticula caused by traction, due to an inflammatory process involving the esophagus, or pulsion, associated with a concom...
