Abstract

Killian-Jamieson diverticulum is a rare disease that is seen at the cervical esophagus. It has quite a different pathogenesis and anatomical location compared with that of Zenker's diverticulum. The pathophysiology and strategy for treating Killian-Jamieson diverticulum are not fully understood. We performed surgery using one incision for treating a case of Killian-Jamieson diverticulum and we review the medical literature that's related to this unusual diverticulum.

Killian-Jamieson 게실은 경부 식도에 발생하는 드문 질환이며 Zenker 게실과는 발생 기전과 부위가 다른 것으로 알려져 있다. Killian-Jamieson 게실의 치료원칙에 대해서는 정립된 바가 없다. Killian- Jamieson 게실 환자에서 경부 절개 하에 수술적 치료를 시행하여 이를 보고하고자 한다.
