Abstract:

Background: the use of vascular closure devices (VCD) reduces the time of hemostasis, accelerates activation and discharge of the patient. Suture-mediated closure devices are closest in it's structure to the traditional surgical method of hemostasis. Advantages and disadvantages of these devices are mainly associated with design features. Stenoses, atherosclerosis, calcification and scars at the site of access are predictors of complications in the use of suturing devices. Although the effectiveness of these devices has been proven in several foreign studies, their data are not sufficient to draw clear conclusions.

Aim: was to evaluate advantages and disadvantages of using the suture-mediated closure devices after PCI.

Material and methods: study enrolled 208 adult patients, who underwent PCI in City Clinical Hospital named after M.P Konchalovsky, Moscow; FSBI «3 Central clinical military hospital n.a. A. A. Vishnevsky» Defense Ministry RF and SMRC preventive medicine of Department of Healthcare. Study group, where hemostasis after PCI was achieved by means of suture-mediated closure devices Perclose Pro Glide (Abbott Vascular), consisted of 90 patients, control group - 118 patients with manual hemostasis. Subjective feelings (pain, numbness, etc.) were assessed using a rating scale. The incidence of complications in the study group was 5.56%, in the control group - 6.78%. The comfort level of patients was higher in the study group

Results of the study: showed that the use of the Perclose device to achieve hemostasis after PC does not increase the frequency of regional vascular complications in compatison with manual hemostasis. But, at the same time, the use of VCD is an effective way to reduce the time of hemostasis, reduces the period of immobilization of the patient, which increases the patient's comfort and reduces patient's hospital stay.

Abstract:

Persistent sciatic artery (SA) is recognized as a minority variant of embryogenesis of lower limb artery. Article describes a clinical case of complex treatment of a patient with persistent SA, critical ischemia of lower limb and with diabetic foot. The patient underwent diagnostics of lesion, that helped to find out possible ways of disease progression, endovascular revascularization and step-by-step surgery treatment that allowed to keep support function of the limb.
