Flexible Endoscopic Septum Division for Zenker's Diverticulum Using 445 nm Blue Light Laser

Treatment for Zenker's diverticulum has evolved to include flexible endoscopic approaches to septum division and cricopharyngeal myotomy. Here we demonstrate flexible endoscopic septum division using the blue light laser with attention to laser parameters, laser-tissue interactions, and procedural technique.

Abstract

Treatment for Zenker's diverticulum has evolved to include flexible endoscopic approaches to septum division and cricopharyngeal myotomy. Here we demonstrate flexible endoscopic septum division using the blue light laser with attention to laser parameters, laser-tissue interactions, and procedural technique.
