We compared in-hospital femoral complications of Angio-Seal, Perclose, and manual compression in consecutive patients who underwent percutaneous coronary interventions in the era of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa platelet inhibition. Femoral closure devices have a similar overall risk profile as manual compression, even in patients treated with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa platelet inhibition, although certain rare complications such as retroperitoneal hemorrhage and severe access-site infection may be more common with the use of these devices.
