Abstract
Mucosal bridge, endoscopically observed as a cord-like mucosal connection across the lumen, looking like a bridge, may infrequently arise anywhere from the esophagus to the colon. Mucosal bridges have been more frequently reported in the colon than in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. The causes of the mucosal bridge are congenital origin or acquired origin as the inflammatory diseases. We experienced a 49-year-old male patient who had multiple esophageal diverticula with mucosal bridges. We report this case with a review of relevant literatures.
