Cutaneous migration of the StarClose device.

    We report the first case of a transcutaneous migration of a vascular clip closure device 10 weeks after placement during femoral artery puncture for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. We postulate focal inflammatory vascular wall changes as the predisposing factor in this patient with giant cell arteritis.
