A 64 year old female underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent placement through the femoral approach. On femoral angiography after the PCI, the arterial sheath insertion site was found to be in the inferior epigastric artery and not in the common femoral artery. We used an Angioseal vascular closure device for management and there were no access site complications.
