Can the clips used for colonoscopy polyps be expelled on their own?

The clips used for colonoscopy polyps are also known as titanium clips, which are self-discharging. Titanium clips play an important role in endoscopic treatment, and can generally be used in areas such as hemostasis or tissue closure. Patients who undergo polypectomy often need to use titanium clips for closure, not only to block the nourishing blood vessels that nourish the polyp, but also to prevent the risk of bleeding after polypectomy. As the titanium clip itself is relatively small, temporarily retained in the body generally does not have adverse effects on the body, to be gradually recovered after polypectomy wound titanium clips will also fall off on their own, and then through the process of defecation out of the body. Therefore, the clip for colonoscopy polyps can be discharged by itself. If you experience any discomfort after colonoscopy polyp treatment, it is recommended that you go to the hospital.
