VALDIVIELSO-CORTAZAR, Eduardo et al. Duodenal diverticular bleeding: an endoscopic challenge. Rev. esp. enferm. dig. [online]. 2017, vol.109, n.6, pp.468-469. ISSN 1130-0108.  https://dx.doi.org/10.17235/reed.2017.4755/2016.

Duodenal diverticula are an uncommon cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Until recently, it was primarily managed with surgery, but advances in the field of endoscopy have made management increasingly less invasive. We report a case of duodenal diverticular bleeding that was endoscopically managed, and review the literature about the various endoscopic therapies thus far described.
