  • Title: Diverticulum hypopharyngis lateralis with a record of one case.
    Author: Iversen PB.
    Journal: Arch Otorhinolaryngol; 1977 Dec 20; 218(1-2):147-9. PubMed ID: 414706.
    Abstract:
    A case of lateral hypopharyngeal diverticula is reported. This type of diverticula is comparatively rare. The diagnosis can be made clinically and confirmed by x-ray examination and hypopharyngoscopy. A pharyngocoele is of differential importance as this may be present in many patients during Valsalva, but does not indicate treatment. The reported case is most probably caused by a development defect in the third branchial cleft.
