The modified interventional method of antegrade common femoral artery access closure using the Angio-Seal device: modified Angio-Seal haemostasis technique: Modified Angio-Seal haemostasis technique.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

Antegrade femoral puncture is frequently performed in endovascular therapy, with haemostasis achieved through manual compression. The aim of this paper is to report the novel method of achieving haemostasis using the Angio-Seal device for antegrade punctures of the femoral artery.

Methods and results

Between September 2017 and March 2018, a total of 50 consecutive patients who underwent endovascular therapies (EVT) through the common femoral artery with an antegrade puncture using a 6 Fr introducer sheath were retrospectively analysed. After EVT, all patients received a 6 Fr Angio-Seal STS Plus Vascular Closure Device. All procedures were performed using the following new technique. First, we inserted the Angio-Seal guidewire from the inserted EVT sheath into the artery
