abstract: Surgery of the posterior diverticulum of the hypopharynx is almost exclusively carried out today from an external approach. 19 patients, of whom 15 were surgically treated by invagination of the pouch, are presented and over a ten year period none have recurred. The indications and advantages of this surgical procedure are described and discussed.
