Correct management of anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy for endoscopic procedures needs adequate evaluation of bleeding

and thrombotic risks in every patient. Latest guidelines from medical societies enable correct risk stratification. Interdisciplinary cooperation

between cardiologist and gastroenterologist is important in special cases. Diagnostic endoscopic procedures can ussually be

performed without a change of therapy, however in therapeutic procedures therapy needs to be adjusted or withheld. For some patients

postponement of endoscopic therapy can be beneficial.
