“…Chronic inflammation of the submucosa has been documented early in the course of the disease, and is felt to be related to the presence of colonizing organisms, or be a result of chemical irritation such as is found with gastroesophageal reflux [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. Infectious agents often found as secondary invaders include Candida, herpes virus, and streptococci [6,[16][17][18], Congenital or develop mental origins for the disorder have also been proposed; however, most authors share the view that it is an acquired abnormality [3,4,[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][19][20][21]. Although much speculative discussion has arisen regarding the etiology of intramural pseudodiverticulosis, no cause has been eluci dated.…”

“…The relatively high incidence of esophageal webs and cases of life-long dysphagia [20,23,27] suggest a congenital or developmental origin. However, we feel, as do the majority of authors, that EIP is an acquired abnormality which is a secondary change due to a chronic inflammatory process.…”

“…In 19 cases, a comparison of the number of the pseudodiverticula was made. In 53% of these cases, the pseudodiverticula remained the same in number [1,3,5,6,17,22,27,32]. In 6 cases (31%), complete disappearance was noted [9,14,19,20].…”
