Benign conditions of the esophagus and esophagogastric region may have implications in elderly patients that differ from those encountered in younger age groups. Special consideration must be given to the unique presentations as well as to the physiologic impact of treatments and treatment complications in this vulnerable population. Minimally invasive approaches are now preferred for most esophageal diseases that require surgical treatment. Despite these and other improvements in therapy, benign esophageal disorders continue to present great challenges to practitioners treating the geriatric population.
