Core Tip	Sclerotherapy is living a new golden age due to the use of safer and more effective solutions. Polidocanol foam has achieved positive results even in peculiar settings such as bleeding patients or as a bridge treatment while waiting for definitive surgery. Endoscopic Polidocanol foam sclerobanding allows the precise application of banding and injection of the drug via direct visualization during endoscopy. Results are superior to rubber band ligation and configure the technique as a promising, practical, cost-effective approach for low-grades hemorrhoids.
