A new absorbable hemostatic clip was investigated by a study in the rat. The reliability and innocuity of the clip were similar to that of the metallic clips from the clinical point of view. Its absorbability and radiotransparency qualities make it the method of choice for ensuring hemostasis and lymphostasis when long-term follow-up investigations involve modern radiological techniques such as computed tomography.
