Abstract
Abstract: We reported a 72-year old patient with Zenker’s diverticulum in Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital who presented with mass sensation in his neck and progressive cervical dysphagia. He had to press his neck after meal for five years before the diagnosis of Zenker’s diverticulum by barium swallowing and esophageal myotomy with diverticulectomy was done. Six months follow-up showed that the patient had no abnormal symptom in swallowing.
