title: Two cases of esophageal diverticula.
abstract: Two cases of pharyngoesophageal diverticula were reported with reference to previous studies. Definite diagnosis was established by esophagography. The surgical treatment is generally conducted in accordance with Goodman-Parnes' criteria for surgical indication. We also carried out surgery on the basis of this criteria. One-stage diverticulectomy was performed and favorable results with no postoperative complications were obtained.
