Killian-Jamieson (K-J) diverticulum is a rare cervical oesophageal diverticulum, less commonly encountered compared with Zenker's diverticulum (ZD). We report a case of K-J diverticulum in a 52-year-old lady who presented with sensation of lump in the neck and food stuck in the throat of 5 years duration. Esophagogram showed a large rightsided pharyngoesophageal diverticulum which was confirmed...
Fibrovascular polyp of the esophagus is a rare and benign pedunculated intraluminal tumor. Microscopically the tumor consists of varying amount of vascular fibrous and adipose tissue that arises in the submucosa and is covered by squamous epithelium (1-5). Grossly the tumor is usually lobulated or club-like in shape , butthe stalk is often comparatively thin (6). Because surgical removal (cervi...
Zenker s diverticulum arises in the posterior wall of the pharynx, above the cricopharyngeal muscle, secondary to a functional cricopharyngeal disorder. We describe our experience with the management of Zenker s diverticulum from 1985 to this day in a third-level hospital. We review clinical data from 27 patients (78% males) with a mean age of 60.4 years. The most common clinical manifestations...
BACKGROUND Spontaneous pneumomediastinum is a rare and benign condition that generally occurs in young generations without any precipitating factor or underlying disease. The purpose of this study is to review our experience in dealing with this entity and detail a reasonable course of assessment and management. METHODS From December 1999 to May 2012, 32 spontaneous pneumomediastinum patients...
Congenital esophageal stenosis CES is an uncommon anomaly that rarely goes undiagnosed until adulthood. We report 2 cases of CES. The first was a one-month-old baby boy who was referred for work up of swallowing disorder and recurrent pneumonias. The diagnosis was confirmed by a continuous fluoroscopic esophagogram, and endoscopic exploration. Simple dilatation resolved his symptoms completely....
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the benefit of routine postoperative chest radiography after removal of esophageal foreign bodies in children. METHODS Medical records were reviewed of all patients evaluated with an esophageal foreign body at a single children's hospital over 10 years. Operative records and imaging reports were reviewed for evidence of esophageal injury. RE...
Achalasia is an esophageal motility disorder of unknown cause, characterized by aperistalsis of the esophageal body and impaired lower esophageal sphincter relaxation. Patients present at all ages, primarily with dysphagia for solids/liquids and bland regurgitation. The diagnosis is suggested by barium esophagram and confirmed by esophageal manometry. Achalasia cannot be cured. Instead, our goa...
A 15-year-old girl was referred to our hospital with a tumor in the mediastinum that had been found on a chest radiograph during a medical check-up. An esophagram showed a large mediastinal mass (60mm in diameter) (▶Video1). No peristalsis of the thoracic esophagus (smooth muscle area) was apparent, and dilatation of the esophagus and retention of the barium were observed on the proximal side o...

A 78-year-old man presented to the outpatient clinic with progressive dysphagia with solid food for a few years. He had the feeling that food got stuck in his chest when swallowing. He denied any fevers, unintentional weight loss, hemoptysis, sore throat, odynophagia, shortness of breath, or wheezing. On examination he was hemodynamically stable. Chest exam revealed lower left lung crackles. He...
