Mechanical Versus Injection Endoscopic Therapy for Dieulafoy's Lesion: a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Our findings suggest that injection methods may be preferred over mechanical techniques in the management of Dieulafoy's lesion due to its potential to reduce recurrent bleeding. Although it is a simple and a non-expensive technique, further studies are needed to confirm these findings and evaluate the long-term outcomes of both interventions.
