Abstract

One of the serious complications of esophageal diverticula is the development of cancer in it. In epiphrenal diverticula malignization is more frequent than in bifurcation diverticula. On the basis of statistical data analysis I.T. Shevchenko (1950) established that tumor in pulsatile diverticulum occurs in 1.2% of cases and in traction one - in 7.8%. In his opinion, one of the causes of esophageal tumor is a tractional diverticulum.
