After a short introduction aiming at outlining the etiopathogenesis of fore thorax acute pain occurring in quite healthy individuals, the authors describe two cases of individuals who complained of retrosternal pains to be related, in their opinion, to acute neoformation of a diverticulum of the esophagus. The Authors conclude by remarking how such newly formed diverticulum of the esophagus is to be included among the etiopathogenetic causes of both fore and back thoracic pains and they underline the necessity of an X-ray examination of the esophagus on subjects where the cause of acute thoracic pain in uncertain.
