“…The combination of vasocontrictor therapy such as terlipressin, for 5 days, along with endoscopic therapy as compared with terlipressin alone decreases risk of rebleeding but does not affect survival [6]. The use of terlipressin has also been shown to be cost-effective in respect of prehospital management [7].…”

“…We have read with interest the study by Lo et al 1 in a recent issue of Gut . Apart from the findings that short-term therapy with terlipressin in combination with ligation seems to improve outcome in bleeding oesophageal varices (BOVs) compared to longer treatment with terlipressin, a shorter treatment period with terlipressin most likely reduces the risk of severe side effects.…”

Endoscopy is often used in gastroenterology. It can prevent early recurrence of bleeding from esophageal varices. Computed virtual chromoendoscopy can diagnose pathological changes at the esophagogastric transitional zone in non-erosive reflux disease. In the buried bumper syndrome the internal bumper, which has migrate into the gastric wall, should be removed endoscopically. Double-balloon enteroscopy is one of the flexible enteroscopy techniques with an acceptable complication rate and remains the diagnostic and therapeutic gold standard for small bowel endoscopy. Hyperplastic polypoidal lesions of more than 1 cm in the colon should be removed, because it is not possible to distinguish definitively between hyperplastic polyps and serrated adenoma. Endoscopic ultrasound of the biliary tract makes it possible to remove biliary tract stones cost-effectively and without radiology. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided necrosectomy of the pancreas has become the standard method and has replaced percutaneous drainage and operative intervention.
