자동위장문합기(GIA : Gastrointestinal Autostapler)를 이용한 젠커게실 치험 1예

Abstract

Zenker diverticulum is rare and symptoms of diverticulum are atypical. This is most commonly seen at the Killian’s triangle. This is caused by altered motility, which results in abnormal intraluminal pressure and the pushing of the mucosa through weakness of the wall. Treatment is surgical via an endoscopic or external approach. Previous external approaches are associated with high com-plication rates and morbidity. We report a new external surgical approach using the gastrointestinal autostapler (GIA) instrument.
