    Author: Abul-Khair MH, Khalil A, Mohsen A.
    Journal: Eur J Surg; 1992; 158(6-7):377-8. PubMed ID: 1356472.
    Abstract:
    A 49-year-old woman with a 2-month history of mild dysphagia and three episodes of haematemesis was found at endoscopy and barium swallow to have an epiphrenic oesophageal diverticulum containing an ulcerating crypt, but no ectopic gastric epithelium. Diverticulectomy and lower oesophageal myotomy gave a good result.
