Endoscopic shielding is an innovative concept in therapeutic endoscopy. Its usage has been mostly restricted to wide‐field endoscopic mucosal resection and/or endoscopic submucosal dissection. A novel potential clinical use may be in bleeding pophylaxis for argon plasma coagulation‐related ulcers under concomitant mandatory dual antiplatelet therapy.
