Safety of a Novel Upper Esophageal Sphincter Balloon Dilator [PDF]
The shape of esophageal dilators has not changed in 350 years. We developed a novel upper esophageal balloon dilation system for the specific shape of the upper esophageal sphincter (UES). This study compares and demonstrates the equivalent safety profile of UES dilation using the Infinity System to dilation with single and double conventional balloon ...

Weak Areas of the Pharyngoesophageal Narrowing (Pharyngoesophageal Union): Anatomic Description and Implication on the Development of Pharyngoesophageal Diverticulum [PDF]
In the pharyngoesophageal narrowing ("pharyngoesophageal junction") there is a difference between the smooth and striated pharynx and esophagus, identifying points of weakness where pharyngoesophageal diverticula originate.

Heterogeneous Presentations of Pharyngoesophageal Diverticula Occurring after Cervical Spine Surgery [PDF]
Dysphagia after anterior cervical spine surgery (ACSS) may be secondary to pharyngoesophageal diverticulum. Our objectives are to (1) highlight the heterogeneity in clinical presentation, (2) discuss pathophysiology and management, and (3) present a ...
