Small out pouching arising from the midline of the posterior wall of the distal pharynx near the pharyngoesophageal junction inferring Zenker diverticulum.
Case Discussion
Zenker diverticulum, also known as a pharyngeal pouch, is a posterior outpouching of the hypopharynx, just proximal to the upper esophageal sphincter.
A Schatzki ring is symptomatically narrow esophageal B-ring occurring in the distal esophagus and usually associated with a hiatus hernia.
