Abstract
Recently, a great deal of literature reported high success rates of the closure of an acute iatrogenic colonic perforation with an endoclip. But, endoclipping has many limitations in various conditions of the perforation. Although some experience has been reported about endoluminal closure of bowel perforation with endoscopic band ligation, there are little evidence about safety and feasibility of that method. The aim of this study was to evaluate the technical feasibility and efficacy of intraluminal closure of colon perforation by use of an endoscopic band ligation (EBL) in an in-vivo canine model.
