[Gastric diverticula].

The Authors, on the basis of two recently observed cases of gastric diverticula, emphasize its relative rarity and set out the various aetiopathogenetic theories of the disease. In this connection they point out that, apart from congenital alterations, particular importance may attach to gastric dyskinetic factors. The Authors conclude by discussing the diagnostic difficulties posed by gastric diverticula and setting out the modern possibilities of study and therapy of the disease.
