# The efficacy of the novel “wall pierce” technique for common femoral access in endovascular therapy

## TL;DR

A new technique called 'wall PIERCE' helps with difficult artery access during endovascular therapy, successfully used in two cases without complications.

## Contribution

The 'wall PIERCE' technique is introduced as a novel method for challenging sheath insertion in endovascular therapy.

## Key findings

- The 'wall PIERCE' technique successfully facilitated sheath insertion in two challenging cases.
- No complications were observed in the cases where the technique was applied.

## Abstract

Under challenging common femoral artery access scenarios, the “wall PIERCE” technique, which utilizes a larger puncture needle to pierce the vessel wall along the guidewire, facilitates sheath insertion. This method proved successful in two cases without any complications, presenting a valuable addition to strategies for addressing challenging sheath insertion scenarios.
