New technique using LigaSure for endoscopic mucomyotomy of Zenker's diverticulum: Diverticulotomy made easier

Abstract

Our results show that treating Zenker's diverticulum using the LigaSure instrument safely improves the patients condition. As a new operative instrument, the LigaSure technique constitutes in our opinion a valid and easy alternative for treatment of Zenker's diverticulum compared to other endoscopic techniques.
