A method and apparatus for sealing a puncture or incision formed percutaneously in tissue separating two internal portions of the body of a living being with an anchor, a sealing plug and a filament connecting the anchor and sealing plug. The method and apparatus provide for automatic tamping and/or cinching of the sealing plug when the apparatus is withdrawn from the puncture site. The automatic tamping and/or cinching is facilitated by transducing a motive force generated by the withdrawal of the apparatus into a tamping and/or cinching force.

L'invention concerne une méthode et un appareil de fermeture d'une perforation ou d'une incision formée par voie percutanée dans un tissu, séparant deux parties internes du corps d'un patient, à l'aide d'un dispositif d'ancrage, d'un dispositif d'obturation et d'un filament connectant le dispositif d'ancrage et le dispositif d'obturation. La méthode et l'appareil assurent le tassement et/ou le serrage automatique du dispositif d'obturation lorsque l'appareil est retiré du site de perforation. Le tassement et/ou serrage automatique est facilité par transformation d'une force motrice générée par le retrait de l'appareil en une force de tassement et/ou serrage.
