ABSTRACT
Multiple esophageal diverticula is a rare entity that may be seen in the course of esophageal motor disorders. Herein, I reported a 45 year-old man presented with intermittent chest pain and dysphagia since 20 years ago that exaggerated during the last six months. Barium swallow and upper GI endoscopy revealed multiple diverticula along the esophagus and his esophageal manometry showed high amplitude contractions [>180 mmHg] in distal part of the esophagus that confirmed the diagnosis of nutcracker esophagus
