First Use of the Manta Closure Device in Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Patients and its Potential Usage for Urgent Endovascular Procedures: A Short Report

Abstract

Arterial closure after endovascular procedures can be managed by manual compression, fascia suture, closure devices or surgical cut-down with direct vessel suture. We describe the first successful usage of the Manta closure device for large access closure in three cases of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. This large-bore access closure device has the potential for use in other endovascular procedures and might be especially beneficial in emergent endovascular surgery.
