| Popis: | A survey of the current surgical practice for patients with a pharyngeal pouch was conducted among general surgeons, otolaryngologists and cardiothoracic surgeons in England and Wales. Our results show that while pouch excision remains the most common method used, endoscopic stapling diverticulotomy is rapidly being adopted. The reasons why this recently introduced technique is likely to become the definitive treatment of pharyngeal pouch are discussed. |
