Surgical treatment of complications associated with the angio-seal vascular closure device: report of three cases.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Angio-Seal arterial closure device consists of several bioabsorbable components and is used for hemostasis of arterial puncture sites. We report 3 cases of hemorrhagic and ischemic complications related to Angio-Seal use. Two cases were treated successfully by surgical removal of the device. In the third case surgical removal of the device failed and additional intervention was necessary. The unique structure of the Angio-Seal and the most likely cause of failure should be considered when treating device-related complications.

Treatment of Angio-Seal® Vascular Closure Device-Induced Acute Femoral Artery Occlusion with SilverHawk® Directional Atherectomy
Vascular closure devices provide a safe and cost-effective method to achieve rapid hemostasis and early ambulation after angiographic procedures. Rarely, they can result in arterial injury with resultant stenosis or acute arterial closure requiring open surgical intervention. We report an Angio-Seal® vascular closure device-induced acute arterial closure successfully treated percutaneously with...
متن کاملA foot ulcer caused by the use of an angio-seal arterial closure device after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty: a case report.
Although the Angio-Seal arterial closure device is widely used for preventing bleeding and facilitating early ambulation after arterial puncture, it is also associated with unique complications, such as stenosis, occlusion, or peripheral embolism. We report the first case of a foot ulcer that developed 70 days after an Angio-Seal application. The collagen sponge component accidently positioned ...
متن کاملA Peculiar Case of a Floating Angio-Seal.
PURPOSE To show a complication of the use of an Angio-Seal™ closure device. CASE We present a patient with a systolic murmur in his femoral artery after PCI. The murmur was caused by a dislocated Angio-Seal™, a vascular closure device. This was diagnosed by Doppler Ultrasound. The device was surgically removed. CONCLUSION Vascular complications, such as lower limb ischemia, requiring surgic...
متن کاملA cost-minimization analysis of the angio-seal vascular closure device following percutaneous coronary intervention.
The Angio-Seal vascular closure device has been shown to be safe and effective in decreasing the time to hemostasis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The health economic implications of routinely using Angio-Seal after PCI have not been explored. We performed a cost-minimization analysis comparing routine Angio-Seal use after PCI with mechanical compression using a decision analyt...
متن کاملProspective Comparison of Collagen Plug (Angio-Seal™) and Suture-Mediated (the Closer S™) Closure Devices at Femoral Access Sites
OBJECTIVE Rapid and effective hemostasis at femoral puncture sites minimizes both the hospital stay and patient discomfort. Therefore, a variety of arterial closure devices have been developed to facilitate the closure of femoral arteriotomy. The objective of this prospective study was to compare the efficacy of two different closure devices; a collagen plug device (Angio-Seal) and a suture-med...
