  • Title: [Pseudodiverticulosis of the esophagus (author's transl)].
    Author: Dirschmid K, Lammer H.
    Journal: Med Klin; 1979 Aug 31; 74(35):1247-9. PubMed ID: 114742.
    Abstract:
    The autopsy of a 59 years old male incidently revealed a pseudodiverticulosis of the esophagus. Histologic examination demonstrated typical cystic ectasies of all glandular ducts in the esophagus; they appeared on radiologic examination and are visible at endoscopy as little yellowish cystic lesions. The disease usually is of chronic nature and comprises disturbance of motility and passage. Chronic alcoholism, like in our case, often constitutes a concomitant disease. The etiology of this disorder is unknown. Certain clinical aspects should be considered.
