Giant midesophageal diverticulum presenting as food impaction: case report and review of the literature.

Usamah Hadi1, Charbel Rameh.   

Abstract

A giant midesophageal diverticulum is a medical rarity that is usually asymptomatic, and discovered incidentally. We report a case of a giant midesophageal diverticulum that revealed itself secondary to food impaction. A literature review on epidemiology, etiology, clinical presentation, investigations, and management of giant midesophageal diverticula will be highlighted.
