Cricopharyngeal myotomy with thulium laser through flexible endoscopy: proof-of-concept study
Background and study aims Endoscopic treatment of Zenker’s diverticulum has proven feasible, but electrocautery and CO2 laser technology carry the risk of collateral thermal injury. Thulium laser septum incision may overcome this limitation.

Transoral septotomy with septum traction is an effective treatment for recurrent Zenker diverticulum
Symptoms of Zenker diverticulum can recur whatever the type of primary treatment administered. A modified transoral stapler-assisted septotomy (TS) was introduced in clinical practice a few years ago to improve the results of this mini-invasive technique.

Zenker's Diverticulum in Japan
In the last ten years, three cases of Zenker's diverticulum were found in our department. All of them were those of Japanese females. Two of them were of the second type of Brombert's classification, and one was of the first type. The roentgenological frequency of this condition was about 0.03 per cent in recent years in our department.
