Pharyngeal pouch

Posted , 2 users are following.

I have a pharyngeal pouch.

The usual approach to resolving this is by  endoscopic stapling. Unfortunately this  failed  for me as the surgeon couldn’t get access to it.

I now have to have it done via neck surgery. 

Has anyone had this done? and what was the outcome?
