No complication was detected. Surgical treatment may be advisable to the patients with incapacitating symptoms because it causes symptomatic relief.
Özet
Anabilim Dalımızda son yedi yılda özefage-al divertiküllü altı hasta izlendi. Hastaların hepsi kadındı ve yas ortalaması 60.1 di. Semptomları az olan, operasyonu reddeden ve tıbbi nedenlerle cerrahiye alınmayan üç hasta konservatif olarak tedavi edilirken geri kalanlara divertikülektomi ve/veya özefagomyotomi yapıldı. Eslik eden öze-fageal hastalık yoktu. Komplikasyon görülmedi. Cerrahi tedavi, hastalarda semptomatik rahatlama sağladığından ciddi semptomları olan hastalarda önerilebilir.
