Embolization of type II endoleak after EVAR using a triaxial system

摘要

Type II endoleak remains a common phenomenon after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Most type II endoleaks are innocuous and will seal spontaneously, justifying conservative management. Intervention, however, may be required in case of aneurysm enlargement or persistent endoleaks after EVAR to prevent delayed aneurysm rupture.1'2 Although multiple treatment strategies have been proposed during the last decade, currently there is no consensus about the optimal threshold and management of type II endoleak.
