Abstract

Insights

The collagen-based MANTA device for large-bore vascular access closure can cause persistent bleeding and vessel occlusion. While endovascular approaches often succeed, some cases require surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Medical Device Safety
  • Interventional Cardiology

Background:

  • The MANTA device is a collagen-based system for closing large-bore vascular access sites.
  • Real-world data on MANTA device complications are limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze complications associated with the MANTA device using real-world data.
  • To identify common failure modes and management strategies for MANTA device-related adverse events.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective analysis of the Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database.
  • Inclusion of reports on the MANTA device from February 2019 to December 2020.

Main Results:

  • 250 reports identified, with persistent bleeding (48.8%) and vessel occlusion/stenosis (29.6%) being most frequent complications.
  • Endovascular management was successful in 48.4% of cases; 40.4% required surgical intervention.
  • Common failure mechanisms included deployment failure (22%) and subcutaneous deployment (7.6%).
  • The 18 Fr. MANTA showed higher rates of vessel occlusion/stenosis and thrombosis compared to the 14 Fr. device.

Conclusions:

  • Persistent bleeding and vessel occlusion are the primary complications of the MANTA device.
  • Endovascular treatment is effective for many MANTA device complications, but surgical intervention remains necessary in a significant proportion of cases.
