    Abstract

    A man in his early 70s presented to the emergency department about 3.5 hours after acute onset right sided hemiplegia and aphasia. CT angiography confirmed an acute occlusion of the M1 segment of the left middle cerebral artery and severe, but stable, dissection of the aortic arch and a large dissecting aortic aneurysm extending into the innominate artery and beyond into the descending aorta. The risk of aggravating existing aortic pathology while trying to navigate from a transfemoral or transradial approach was considered to be very high; therefore, the decision was made to proceed with direct carotid puncture for mechanical thrombectomy. The procedure was successfully completed, and the carotid puncture site was closed without issue using the Celt ACD vascular closure device (Vasorum, Dublin, Ireland). The patient recovered and was discharged home at his prestroke neurologic baseline 9 days later. Here we discuss the safe and effective use of this novel closure device in the setting of direct carotid puncture for neurointerventional procedures.
