Figure 5 Intravascular Versus Extravascular Closure Devices
New staple- and clip-mediated (StarClose or Angiolink) vascular closure devices have a potential advantage of being "extravascular" with no anchor (Angio-Seal) or suture (Perclose). This may be especially significant in situations where minor femoral artery lumen compromise would be clinically consequential (i.e., mild-moderate femoral arterial disease).
