Familial Zenker's diverticulum.

Abstract:

CONCLUSION:The aetiology of Zenker's diverticulum is likely to be multifactorial. The geographical and racial variation in the prevalence and the rare familial cases suggest that genetic predisposition might have a role in the pathogenesis. The mode of inheritance in the rare possible familial cases seems to be autosomal dominant; recessive inheritance is non-existent or extremely rare. OBJECTIVES:To study the inheritance of Zenker's diverticulum. SUBJECTS AND METHODS:A detailed questionnaire concerning physical health and family history was sent to 122 patients with Zenker's diverticulum. RESULTS:The prevalence of familial disease in Finland was found to be < 2%. We found no evidence for genetic founder effect.

  • Schwannoma (neurilemmoma) of the tongue.

    abstract:CONCLUSION:Schwannoma of the tongue always presents as a painless mass on the lingual surface and exhibits no gender preference. A schwannoma on the base of tongue is usually larger at presentation than one on the tongue itself, since it is asymptomatic initially. Complete resection is achievable and recurrence is unco...
