title: [Epidermoid carcinoma on Zenker's diverticulum].
abstract: Carcinoma is a rare but recognized complication of pharyngoesophageal diverticulum. We report the case of a 49-year-old man operated for a Zenker's diverticulum with an epidermoid carcinoma arising in the diverticulum. Since carcinoma is an uncommon complication of this pathology, we review the literature and discuss the therapeutic options.
