Endoscopic histoacryl injection for hemostasis of non-variceal bleeding is safe and effective modality

Aims Histoacryl is one of the materials that can be used as a sclerosing agent and is known to be effective in endoscopic hemostasis of acute gastric variceal bleeding. In addition, it can be applied to hemostasis of non-variceal GI bleeding with relatively simple manipulation and is also effective. However its effect has not clearly known in ulcer bleeding. We reviewed patients who had undergone treatment endoscopically with Histoacryl and assessed the effectiveness and side effects according to ulcer bleeding.
