The authors describe two patients who underwent transfemoral endovascular procedures followed by the use of the Angio-seal arterial percutaneous closure device. In the first patient, distal migration of the device occurred with consequent occlusion of the ipsilateral popliteal artery 2 days post procedure. In the second patient, thrombotic occlusion of the femoral artery occurred and the patient presented with acute leg ischaemia 3 weeks post procedure. Surgical removal of the closure device with consequent revascularisation of the affected leg was achieved in both patients. This report aims to alert clinicians to the possibility of device-induced arterial occlusion, dislodgment and their sequelae.

The scope of existing annular closure device (ACD) studies examining long-term follow-up data is limited. There is a paucity of studies that report and analyze recent outcomes data following ACD use. We sought to summarize the available long-term follow-up data on postoperative outcomes of the Barricaid (Intrinsic Therapeutics) ACD.

Background: This study evaluates the effects of ozone on hard and soft tissue healing when a free tissue flap is used to close wound areas lacking primary closure over autogenous grafted sites.
Methods: In our study, 24 male Wistar rats were divided into four groups: two control groups and two ozone-treated groups. All rats underwent the same surgical procedure.

This study aims to assess the clinical efficacy and feasibility of the Perclose ProGlide Suture-Mediated Closure System (Abbott Vascular, Redwood City, CA, USA) for transbrachial access. A total of 100 patients from July 2020 to December 2023 were included in this retrospective study. Among them, 40 patients underwent ProGlide-guided suture closure following brachial artery (BA) puncture, while 60 patients received traditional manual compression.

This study introduces a novel bilayer wound dressing that integrates a quaternized chitosan-polyacrylic acid (QCs-PAA) sponge as the top layer with electrospun nanofibers containing curcumin as the bottom layer. For the first time, QCs and PAA were combined in an 80:20 ratio through freeze-drying to form a porous sponge layer with ideal structural properties, including 83 ± 6 % porosity and pore diameters of 290 ± 12.5 μm.
