Data were abstracted for patient demographics, reflux symptoms, and rates of adverse events and symptomatic recurrence.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 426 patients were included in the study, 97 (22.8%) of which had a history of hiatal hernia. Eleven patients (11.3%) with a history of hiatal hernia had undergone Nissen fundoplication prior to ZD. Patients with a history of hiatal hernia showed less symptomatic improvement postoperatively. Significant differences were noted in the change in the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT\u201010) (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.01) and Reflux Symptom Index (RSI) (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.03) where patients without a history of hiatal hernia improved more than hiatal hernia patients. Despite these differences in symptom relief, rates of postoperative complications and rates of recurrence did not significantly differ between groups. The median time to recurrence was similar for both groups.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients without a history of hiatal hernia had significantly larger improvements in EAT\u201010 and RSI scores compared to patients with a history of hiatal hernia. However, these differences in scores may not represent clinically meaningful differences. There were no significant differences in postoperative adverse events or in recurrence of the Zenker's diverticulum between groups.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ohn.1086","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,15]],"date-time":"2024-12-15T14:36:01Z","timestamp":1734273361000},"page":"947-952","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Hiatal Hernia and Zenker's Diverticulotomy Outcomes"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"172","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8274-0971","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Katherine P.","family":"Wallerius","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery Mayo Clinic Rochester Minnesota USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lazaro R.","family":"Peraza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery Mayo Clinic Rochester Minnesota USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hawa M.","family":"Ali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery Mayo Clinic Rochester Minnesota USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas J.","family":"O'Byrne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Quantitative Health Sciences Mayo Clinic Rochester Minnesota USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andrew S.","family":"Awadallah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery, Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine Mayo Clinic Rochester Minnesota USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Semirra L.","family":"Bayan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery Mayo Clinic Rochester Minnesota USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Louis Wong Kee","family":"Song","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology Mayo Clinic Rochester Minnesota USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dale C.","family":"Ekbom","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery Mayo Clinic Rochester Minnesota USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348940311200703"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0003-4975(98)00502-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MOO.0000000000000309"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-198805000-00010"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348940811701210"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvoice.2019.11.019"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvoice.2011.02.004"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00405-020-06346-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ohn.318"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0022215122002377"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.gie.2011.05.007"}],"container-title":["Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/aao-hnsfjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/ohn.1086","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,20]],"date-time":"2025-10-20T10:00:32Z","timestamp":1760954432000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/aao-hnsfjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/ohn.1086"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,15]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,3]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/ohn.1086"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/ohn.1086","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0194-5998","1097-6817"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0194-5998"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1097-6817"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,15]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2024-09-27","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2024-11-25","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2024-12-15","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
