Case description

The identification of high-risk stigmata of hemorrhage enables selective targeting of endoscopic therapy to lesions at high risk of rebleeding. Advances in technologies such as novel mechanical methods of hemostasis (eg, metallic clips), injection techniques (eg, cyanoacrylate injection), and the widening application of established endoscopic hemostatic techniques (eg, rubber-band ligation) to colonic lesions offers the possibility of further improvements in the efficacy of endoscopic hemostasis.
