Figure 2 Closure of the diverticulum using the resected stalk of the polyp.
A: In a closer view of the resected surface, the cavity of the diverticulum was irregular (the black arrows), and an exposed vessel was identified (red arrow); resection of the polyp indicated that it arose from the diverticulum; B: To prevent bleeding and delayed perforation following the endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) procedure, we inverted the diverticulum and sutured the inverted diverticulum, including the resected stalk of the polyp, using an over-the-scope clip (red arrows); C, D: After the EMR procedure, computed tomography was performed to examine the soft tissue density around the over-the-scope clip and the increased fat density around the resected site (white arrows).
