Percutaneous suture technique with ProGlide to manage vascular access pseudoaneurysm after percutaneous coronary intervention procedure: A case report.

ABSTRACT: Iatrogenic femoral artery pseudoaneurysm is a common complication of the endovascular procedures. Manual compression and thrombin injection are the conventional techniques to occlude the pseudoaneurysms. However, there are still some failed cases that applied these treatment options. The aim of the study is to seek a potential and alternative method with ProGlide system to close the pseudoaneurysm. During April 2018 to February 2019, 2 patients with iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm of the superficial femoral were treated with the suture-base closure device--ProGlide. After punctured the pseudoaneurysm and placed a 6-F sheath, the guide wire was placed in the right femoral artery via the access of the pseudoaneurysm neck. Then the pseudoaneurysm neck was sutured by ProGlide to occlude the blood supply to the pseudoaneurysm. These 2 patients were cured with no complications and complaints, which revealed that percutaneous suture technique with ProGlide at the neck level of pseudoaneurysm provides a novel method for the management of vascular access pseudoaneurysm, especially in those with a wide and short neck.
