| Abstract: | This paper briefly reviews previously recorded cases of (epiphrenic) oesophageal diverticula in the dog and describes the clinical and radiological findings in, nine further cases. Four of the nine cases also had a broncho–oesophageal fistula; clinical and histological evidence is presented to suggest that the lesions were congenital in at least five animals. |
