Abstract |
Pharyngoesophageal diverticulum is a relatively rare disorder. However, it commonly mimics a thyroid nodule on ultrasound. Recently, we experienced a pharyngoesophageal diverticulum that was filled with food materials and had a narrow neck. Herein, we discuss the sonographic findings of this case. |
