Endoscopic treatment has been described with hemoclips and glue.Case report We report a case of a gentleman with a history of recurrent episodes of acute pancreatitis who presentedwith symptoms correlating with the development of a pancreatic-colonic fistula. Closure of the fistula was attemptedwith an over-the-scope clip. Conclusion More evidence is needed to determine criteria for use of over-the-scope clip inclosure of GI and pancreatic fistulae.
