pubmed:abstractText |
Epiphrenic diverticula are outpouchings of the esophagus that retain some or all layers of the esophageal wall. Symptoms such as intermittent dysphagia and vomiting may occur. The authors present a case of an elderly woman with a history of dysphagia who presented with a massive upper gastrointestinal bleed because of a bleeding epiphrenic diverticulum seen at endoscopy who responded to conservative management. Bleeding epiphrenic diverticula should be considered as a cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
