摘要
Esophageal pseudodiverticulosis, a rare condition, involves small sac-like structures in the esophageal wall, stemming from dilated excretory ducts of submucosal glands. While uncommon, it can complicate Candida albicans esophagitis, a yeast infection linked to various clinical issues, including pseudodiverticula formation. This unique association underscores the importance of understanding its clinical implications and optimal management. In this case, a 68-year-old female sought medical attention for dysphagia and recurrent food impaction. The diagnostic journey revealed esophageal pseudodiverticulosis and Candida albicans esophagitis, emphasizing the complexity of esophageal disorders.
