We report a rare complication involving a healthy 45-year-old male patient who underwent an emergency laparoscopic appendicectomy for acute perforated gangrenous appendicitis. The patient was catheterised pre- procedure and the ports were inserted under vision. Upon completion of the procedure, a 15 Fr Robinson drain was left in the pelvis and was fed

AbstractSymptomatic Zenker's diverticula are usually treated with diverticulectomy and myotomy. Other, more conservative open procedures consist of diverticulopexy, imbrication, and myotomy alone. These more conservative procedures do not result in a breach of esophageal mucosa and should have more rapid postoperative recovery.

Zenker's diverticulum (ZD) is an outpouching of tissue through the Killian triangle that is believed to be caused by dysfunction of the cricopharyngeal muscle. ZD is a relatively uncommon disorder occurring in the elderly. The predominant symptom of ZD is dysphagia, and the most serious consequence is pulmonary aspiration. Videofluoroscopy confirms the

This article introduces the pathogenesis and relevant anatomy of Zenker diverticulum. The clinical symptoms and relevant investigation are presented along with the various therapeutic interventions including open and endoscopic approaches. Techniques to perform the myotomy and diverticulectomy are expanded on and include traditional suture ligation ...

Tracheal diverticulum is a rarely encountered entity, usually discovered incidentally as an outpouching at the right side on radiography or computed tomography (CT). We present the case of a male patient with a tracheal diverticulum detected during a work-up for hemoptysis.

A 67-year-old man with an 8-month history of dysphagia and regurgitation presented to the gastroenterology clinic. A barium swallow examination showed an outpouching esophageal lesion consistent with a Zenker’s diverticulum.

Zenker’s diverticulum is a pouch protruding posteriorly above the upper esophageal sphincter, in the Killian’s triangle, an area of relative weakness. Zenker’s diverticulum was thought, for many years, to occur as a result of cricopharyngeal incoordination but more recent evidence points to poor upper sphincter compliance with diminished sphincter ...

Uterine diverticula complicating pregnancy rarely are reported and should be differentiated from sacculation of pregnancy and other pelvic masses.A primigravida presented for a routine second-trimester anatomical survey ultrasound examination at 22 weeks of gestation. She initially was thought to have a bicornuate, bicolic uterus with bulging membranes.

Abstract 1.1. A brief resume of the present knowledge of Meckel's diverticulum has been presented and twenty-four additional cases added to the literature. 2.2. The thesis that these patients will rarely be diagnosed preoperatively has been proven and the fact that these will almost invariably be found at operation for an acute abdomen, usually ...
