Currently, there are different competing techniques for the treatment of Zenker's diverticulum (ZD). To improve patient selection, we compared endoscopic laser-assisted diverticulotomy (ELAD) with transcervical myotomy (TCM) with regard to possible risk factors for treatment failure.
Data of ZD patients (n = 104) treated between 2004 and 2016 with either TCM (38%) or ELAD (62%) were analyzed retrospectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed.
TCM is associated with a higher morbidity (27.8% vs. 10.2%; p = 0.095) but lower recurrence rate (7.3% vs. 19.3%; p = 0.095). Preoperative reflux disease (OR 8.755; p = 0.021) was identified as an independent risk factor for complications.
Although short-term outcome and symptom relief are similar, TCM tends to have a higher complication rate but better long-term results. Preoperative reflux disease is an independent risk factor for postoperative complications.
目前，Zenker 憩室（ZD）的治疗存在多种竞争技术。为了改善患者选择，我们比较了内镜激光辅助憩室切开术（ELAD）与经颈肌切开术（TCM）在治疗失败的可能危险因素方面的差异。
回顾性分析了 2004 年至 2016 年间接受 TCM（38%）或 ELAD（62%）治疗的 ZD 患者（n=104）的数据。进行了单因素和多因素分析。
TCM 与更高的发病率（27.8%比 10.2%；p=0.095）相关，但复发率较低（7.3%比 19.3%；p=0.095）。术前反流性疾病（OR 8.755；p=0.021）被确定为并发症的独立危险因素。
尽管短期结果和症状缓解相似，但 TCM 往往具有更高的并发症发生率，但长期结果更好。术前反流性疾病是术后并发症的独立危险因素。
