ABSTRACT
As a complication following anterior cervical spine screw or plate fixation, a pharyngoesophageal diverticulum (Zenker's diverticulum) is rare in comparison with iatrogenic esophageal perforation or tracheo-esophageal fistula. Esophageal perforation or fistula usually develop abrupt and severe symptoms such as fever, dyspnea, coughing or swelling on the cervical area. However. there is no definite symptoms except mild and chronic dysphagia in case of pharyngoesophageal diverticulum. Therefore, it is very likely that the diagnosis will be delayed and serious complication will be occurred. We report a case of 58-year-old spinal cord injured man with a Zenker's diverticulum following anterior cervical plate fixation.
