Core Tip	With advances in endoscopic technologies, endoscopic clips have been used successfully in the treatment of various types of oesophageal perforations, anastomosis leakages and fistulas. We summarized the results of oesophageal perforation closure with endoscopic clips [the through-the-scope (TTS) clip and the over-the-scope clip (OTSC)]. We processed the data from 38 articles and 127 patients using PubMed search. Based on the evidence, TTS clips are efficacious in the treatment of 10 mm lesions, while bigger (< 20 mm) lesions can be treated successfully with OTSC clips. Based on experience so far, endoscopic clips represent a possible therapeutic alternative to surgery in the treatment of oesophageal perforations under well-defined conditions.
