What is Therapeutic Endoscopy?

Therapeutic endoscopy refers to minimally invasive procedures performed using an endoscope to treat various gastrointestinal (GI) conditions. Unlike diagnostic endoscopy, which focuses on identifying issues, therapeutic endoscopy allows for direct interventions to resolve them without the need for open surgery.  

Why is Therapeutic Endoscopy Performed?

Therapeutic endoscopy is used to treat various conditions of the digestive tract, such as:

  • Stopping GI bleeding.
  • Removing polyps or tumors.
  • Treating strictures or blockages.
  • Managing complications of pancreatitis or bile duct disorders.
  • Placing stents to maintain the patency of ducts or tracts.

Conditions Treated with Therapeutic Endoscopy

  • Gastrointestinal Bleeding: Stopping bleeding using techniques like banding, sclerotherapy, or argon plasma coagulation.
  • Esophageal Varices: Preventing or controlling bleeding from dilated veins in the esophagus.
  • Polyps and Tumors: Removing benign polyps or early-stage tumors.
  • Strictures and Blockages: Dilating narrowed areas in the esophagus, stomach, or intestines.
  • Bile Duct Stones or Blockages: Removing stones or placing stents to restore bile flow.
  • Pseudocysts or Fluid Collections: Draining pancreatic or abdominal fluid collections.
