Abstract
None:
To prevent sheath perforation during figure-of-eight suturing, operators should optimize needle placement and suture tension, avoiding proximal sheath puncture. Polyether block amide sheath usage and intraluminal device retention during suturing provide additional protection. Standardized training and prompt suture removal upon resistance during sheath withdrawal may enhance safety.
