Abstract

We report a case of a 54-year-old man presenting with recurrent epiphrenic diverticulum and esophagobronchial fistula 3 years after thoracoscopic diverticulectomy. Surgical correction required transhiatal stapling of the pouch combined with distal esophageal myotomy and Dor fundoplication.
