A novel technique for 14 French arteriotomy closure after percutaneous aortic valvuloplasty using two Mynx closure devices.

Management of large bore arterial access sites often represents a challenge during interventional procedures, and usually requires prolonged manual compression, though suture-mediated closure techniques have been described. We report our experience in using the Mynx vascular closure device to close a 14 French femoral arteriotomy in two patients undergoing percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty.
