Case reports demonstrate effective removal of food bolus and clots using cap-assisted suction, indicating its versatility.

However, video-based documentation of long cap-assisted suction – particularly for piecemeal removal or intraprocedural clot clearance – remains limited ([Fig. 1]). Herein, we present two cases highlighting the versatility of this approach.
