Endoscopic hemoclips in postoperative bleeding.
The field of application for endoscopic hemoclips has been increasingly extended, especially thanks to improvements in clips and additional clinical indications. Hemoclips are used more frequently for upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding and sometimes after therapeutic endoscopy. We report the successful use of endoscopic hemoclips in the management of two cases of postoperative colonic haemorrhage.
