Safety profile of an 8F femoral arteriotomy closure using the Angio-Seal device in thrombolysed acute stroke patients undergoing thrombectomy.

Conclusion Use of the Angio-Seal closure device for 8F femoral access is safe in acute stroke patients. Intravenous thrombolysis prior to endovascular thrombectomy does not significantly alter femoral access site complication rate if this approach is used.
