Esophageal rings, webs, and diverticula.

Rings, webs, and diverticula are among the most common anatomic anomalies of the esophagus. Although these structural lesions are often asymptomatic, patients can develop significant problems with dysphagia, regurgitation, and aspiration. This article discusses the epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and therapy of esophageal rings, webs, and diverticula with emphasis on the clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic strategies involved in caring for patients with these conditions.
