Percutaneous endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is nowadays considered a safe and effective procedure and has gained widespread globally acceptance. However, intraoperative persistent bleeding due to percutaneous access closure device failure can occur. Open conversion is first-line treatment to manage this complication. The fascia suture technique was introduced as an alternative to access closure device or as a solution to manage unsatisfactory hemostasis during percutaneous endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. In this article, we report a new simple minimally invasive ultrasound-guided fascia suture technique as a bailout method to manage persistent bleeding after percutaneous endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair avoiding open conversion. This technique was successfully used in two cases at our center with satisfactory hemostasis and no further complications. Ultrasound-guided fascia suture technique can be proposed as a minimally invasive bailout technique for access closure device failure.
