Injection and Cautery Methods for Nonvariceal Bleeding Control

“…In 2 case reports, sodium hyaluronate has been used to successfully achieve endoscopic hemostatic in bleeding ulcers; however, clinical trials are needed. 40,41 Outcomes of Injection Therapy…”

Hyaluronic acid solution injection for upper and lower gastrointestinal bleeding after failed conventional endoscopic therapy

“…Given its prolonged action time and tamponading pressure, injecting HA solutions presents a potential quick and safe mechanism for bleeding control. We previously reported the successful termination of pulsatile bleeding from sclerotic ulcer bases through HA solution injection (HASI) . HASI was subsequently used in our practice for bleeding control, particularly when classical modalities failed.…”

“…We previously reported the successful termination of pulsatile bleeding from sclerotic ulcer bases through HA solution injection (HASI). 5 HASI was subsequently used in our practice for bleeding control, particularly when classical modalities failed. In the present report, we collected results from cases where HASI was used to terminate bleeding and evaluated the efficacy and safety of HASI for bleeding control in specific cases.…”
