Aim: This study aims to describe the feasibility and safety of direct occluded vessel puncture as a new access site for complex peripheral artery occlusive disease.
Methods: Eleven consecutive patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease underwent endovascular therapy using the direct occluded vessel puncture technique. The occluded vessel was punctured using a dedicated 20 G needle and the Hi-Torque Command 18 ST guidewire under duplex echo or fluoroscopic guidance, and a 6 Fr sheath was then inserted. Hemostasis was achieved with the Exoseal® Vascular Closure Device.
Results: Direct occluded vessel puncture was achieved in 10 of 11 cases (90.9%), and procedural success was achieved in all cases. There were no in-hospital deaths or any complications, including bleeding, pseudoaneurysms, thrombosis, or surgical conversion.
Conclusion: The direct occluded vessel puncture technique using a 20 G needle and the Hi-Torque Command 18 ST is feasible and safe. This technique may also be used as an alternative option when there are no appropriate approach sites.
