Summary
Three cases of intramural pseudodiverticulosis of the oesophagus are described together with a review of the relevant literature. This unusual condition, diagnosed by characteristic features on the barium swallow, is associated with a high incidence of benign oesophageal stricture which responds readily to endoscopic dilatation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
