The Zenker’s diverticulum is an out pouching of the hypopharynx arising between the fibers of the cricopharyngeus inferiorly and the inferior constrictor superiorly. This region of herniation is known as Killian’s triangle. Patients often present with a longstanding history of gradually increasing dysphagia of both solids and liquids.

The surgical treatment of Zenker diverticulum relieves dysphagia, coughing, and aspiration in nearly all patients. An understanding of the physiological basis for cricopharyngeal myotomy and anatomical detail has contributed to the high success rate. Meticulous technique in this elderly patient group is essential to prevent complications.

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2002
The treatment of patients with a Zenker's diverticulum is endoscopic or surgical. Whichever procedure is chosen, the most important component of the procedure is a thorough cricopharyngeal myotomy. This can be accomplished either externally through a neck incision or internally with an endoscope.

The cricopharyngeal diverticulum or Zenker's diverticulum is the most frequent type of diverticulum of the upper gastrointestinal tract. It occurs mostly in elderly patients. The predominant symptoms are dysphagia and regurgitation which may result in malnutrition and aspiration pneumonia, the latter eventually being life threatening.

Records of 72 consecutive patients with caliceal diverticula, representing an incidence of 4.5 per 1,000 excretory urograms, were studied. Of these 72 patients, 39 per cent had a history of recurrent infections and an equal number had stone-containing diverticula. However, only 17 per cent had roentgenographic evidence of pyelonephritis.

Pure cysts of the male genital system are rare, with the exception of epididymal cysts. Midline cystic masses in or near the prostate represent either an infectious etiology or utricular/Mullerian duct cysts. Prostatic diverticuli are extremely rare entities.

Abstract Fifty cases of Meckel's diverticulum are presented and analyzed. The literature is consulted for comparison of this series with the series of other authors. The embryologic background is briefly given. The authors' experience in dealing with these patients is summarized and suggestions are made for improvement in diagnosis and treatment.

Summary A case is presented of Meckel's diverticulum causing symptoms of three years' duration before severity of the clinical course led to laparotomy and diagnosis. Meckel's diverticulitis occurs often enough to be considered in the differential diagnosis of the patient with abdominal symptomatology.

Meckel's diverticulum is a cause of significant morbidity and mortality. Often this is related to the delay in diagnosis. Based on a US population of 200 million people and a 2% incidence, there are 4 million Meckel's diverticula present waiting to cause symptoms.
