Abstract:
The true incidence of epiphrenic esophageal diverticulum is unknown. Traditionally, diverticulectomy via a left thoracic approach has represented the gold standard. Trans-hiatal esophageal dissection under laparoscopy is feasible, but has not, to our knowledge, been applied before in the treatment of epiphrenic esophageal diverticulum.
