Abstract

The goal of this chapter is to illustrate our approach to patients with epiphrenic diverticula in terms of preoperative evaluation and surgical technique. Two techniques will be presented: a laparoscopic repair and a thoracic approach. Indications for each technique will be discussed, as well as proper patient selection and management.
