Pharyngeal pouches are generally treated with surgery, via either an endoscopic or an external approach. Large pouches extending to the mediastinum carry an increased risk of post-operative mediastinitis in the event of a leak following external approach surgery, and may not always be amenable to endoscopic stapling.
Transcervical stapling is a newly described technique that uses the endoluminal stapling approach but in which the diverticuloscope is inserted into the pharynx via a neck incision.
This technique has been used successfully on three patients with large pharyngeal pouches, where endoscopic stapling was not possible due to access limitations.
咽袋通常通过手术治疗,可采用内镜或外部入路。延伸至纵隔的大咽袋在外入路手术后若发生渗漏,术后纵隔炎风险增加,且可能并非总能通过内镜吻合器治疗。
经颈吻合术是一种新描述的技术,它采用腔内吻合方法,但通过颈部切口将憩室镜插入咽部。
该技术已成功应用于3例大咽袋患者,这些患者因入路受限无法进行内镜吻合术。
