Diffuse intraesophageal diverticulum

Diffuse intraesophageal diverticulum is a very rare benign lesion. Mendl et al. (1960) first described the disease. The disease is characterized by multiple esophageal walls that are diffusely distributed in size from 1 to 3 mm, which are accompanied by esophageal inflammation, fibrosis, and thickening of the wall.
