Dieulafoy's lesions (DLs) are a rare cause of acute gastrointestinal bleeds (GIBs). Here we describe Over-the-Scope Clip Padlock System (OTSC-P) use to treat a gastric fundus DL with recurrent bleeding despite other interventions. The OTSC-P was created for full-thickness defect closure in the event of a perforation, but use has expanded to treatment of GIB. They consist of metal clips mounted on transparent caps, delivered via endoscope. Their size allows control of larger bleeding lesions, provides enhanced tissue stability and the firmer clip grasp reduces rebleeding or clip dislodgement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
