RESUMO
Various vascular closure devices have come into common usage by most angio/interventional radiologists and cardiologists over the past 6 or 7 years. This has occurred despite the "real angiographers hold their own punctures" mindset that many of us learned in training. In our practice, we tried a number of different devices, but began using VasoSeal as our primary closure method in mid-1998. Since then, we have performed approximately 2400 procedures in which the VasoSeal device was deployed. The purpose of this article is to review the technique of VaseSeal closure of percutaneous arteriotomy sites.
