Efficacy of Surgicel® (Fibrillar) for preventing bleeding after endoscopic submucosal dissection for gastric epithelial tumors.

Combination therapy with Surgicel and an H2 RA decreased the rate of bleeding similarly to PPI. Adding Surgicel to H2 RA could be considered for patients with bleeding tendencies, or who require continuous antiplatelet therapy to prevent bleeding after ESD.
