Fig. 2 Illustration of the common femoral artery (CFA) occlusion. (A) shows the feet length and the proper deployment of ProGlide, which is positioned with both the anterior and posterior feet against the anterior wall of the CFA. (B) shows an illustration of the occlusion mechanism and the operation. Because the puncture angle is less than 45°, the anterior foot stitched at the anterior arterial wall twice, and the posterior foot dissected the posterior arterial wall. The torn artery was cut out and underwent end-to-end anastomosis.
