Introduction: Percutaneous endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (PEVAR) using the Perclose ProGlide suture mediated closure device is currently performed on a global scale. A safe, effective, and cheap technique for achieving haemostasis during PEVAR is described that allows the reversible downsizing of the arteriotomy, without using any other devices.
Technique: The procedure consists of pulling the blue thread of the pre-implanted ProGlide, advancing the knot close to the arterial wall by pushing it with the dilator of a small introducer sheath, and maintaining the system under tension by grasping the end of the blue thread with a haemostat until bleeding control is achieved.
Discussion: Seventeen PEVAR femoral access downsizing procedures have been performed between February and June 2018 and no complications were observed. The technique could be useful in everyday practice and has now become the author's standard practice.

Purpose: This single-center study aimed to assess patients who underwent intentional percutaneous endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (pEVAR) with Hybrid Technique combining a single Perclose (Abbott, Abbott Park, Illinois) Suture-Mediated Closure Device + single Angio-Seal VIP 8F (Terumo, Tokyo, Japan) and compare outcomes with the standard Dual Perclose technique. Materials and Methods: Consecutive elective pEVAR patients treated from November 2022 to November 2023, with healthy femoral accesses and introducer sheaths ≤20 French (F) outer diameter, were included. Coin-toss randomization determined whether a combination of single Perclose Device + single Angio-Seal VIP 8F (Hybrid Technique) or the standard double Perclose Devices (Dual Perclose) was used.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare a dual Proglide strategy versus a combination of one Proglide and dual Exoseal for large-bore access closure during percutaneous access endovascular aneurysm repair (pEVAR).
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 97 patients who underwent pEVAR at our center between January 2021 and February 2023. The patients were divided into two groups: dual Proglide (P + P) and one Proglide with dual Exoseal (P + E).

Purpose: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of sequential sutures and plugged vascular closure devices (VCDs) for large-bore access closure during percutaneous access endovascular aneurysm repair (PEVAR).
Materials And Methods: Data on 16 patients who underwent PEVAR at the authors' center from January 2022 to May 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. The median age was 72 years (interquartile range [IQR], 59-75 years), with a male-to-female ratio of 3:1.

Background: In endovascular procedures including total percutaneous endovascular aneurysm repair (pEVAR), percutaneous access through the common femoral artery is most commonly performed. Access-site bleeding is a major concern in percutaneous techniques. Herein, we present a case of successful control of continuous oozing using a vascular closure device (VCD) and the application of Surgicel (Johnson & Johnson, United States) over the access tract.

Background: Percutaneous endovascular aneurysm repair (pEVAR) is commonly utilized and requires the use of suture-mediated closure (SMC) devices to ensure adequate femoral artery hemostasis. Despite the use of such devices, puncture-related complications remain relatively common. We introduced two new adjuncts (pledget reinforcement and tractional compression) along with SMC to reduce such puncture-related complications.
