✦ Synopsis

Endoscopic stapling esophagodiverticulostomy utilizes devices that are designed for general and thoracic surgery purposes, and not very familiar to the Otolaryngology trainees.

Familiarization with the variety of devices available and their proper use is paramount to safe practice of this technique. This study describes a single surgeon's experience in learning the technique of endoscopic Zenker's esophagodiverticulostomy and reports the outcomes from the first 20 cases done by this technique.
