RAMIREZ-QUESADA, Wagner Enrique et al. Colonic bleeding secondary to over the scope clip migration. Endoscopia [online]. 2019, vol.31, n.1, pp.47-49.  Epub 25-Oct-2021. ISSN 2444-6483.  https://doi.org/10.24875/end.m19000005.

The over the scope clips (OTSC) technology are endoscopic tools with the capacity for a transmural closure used in various clinical scenarios, such as gastrointestinal bleeding, perforations, fistulae or leaks, each one with different success rates but with positive results in general. Their use has complemented the therapeutic endoscopist armamentarium due to the increased complications of the new endoscopic techniques. Even though it has great versatility, they are not exempt of potentially serious adverse effects. We present the case of a patient in which an OTSC provoked a massive colonic hemorrhage that needed endoscopic extraction of the clip.

Palabras llave : OTSC; Adverse effect; Lower GI bleed; Colonic hemorrhage; Esophageal leak.
