Abstract

The Angio-Seal arterial closure device consists of several bioabsorbable components and is used for hemostasis of arterial puncture sites. We report 3 cases of hemorrhagic and ischemic complications related to Angio-Seal use. Two cases were treated successfully by surgical removal of the device. In the third case surgical removal of the device failed and additional intervention was necessary. The unique structure of the Angio-Seal and the most likely cause of failure should be considered when treating device-related complications.
