    • Embolization of type Ⅱ endoleaks after endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm: a single center experience

      Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of treating type Ⅱ endoleaks after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysms with coil embolization. Methods A retrospective review of patients with type Ⅱ endoleaks treated with coil embolization was performed. Data regarding the technical, clinical, and imaging outcomes during perioperation and followed-up were collected. Results The technical success rate and the initial clinical success rate of treating type Ⅱ endoleaks with coil embolization were 100% (14/14). The mean operating time was (124.3±11) min, a mean of (127±15) mL contrast agent and a mean of (7±2) coils were used. During perioperation, one patient suffered left limb paralysis, all the patients were discharged with no perioperative mortality. Twelve patients were followed-up. During the period of 3 to 57 months of followed-up (average: 17.3 months), Type Ⅱ endoleaks reoccurred in one patient with coil embolization of the feeding vessels alone and two patients with coil embolization of the aneurysm sac alone. Since the aneurysms did not enlarge during the followed-up, these 3 patients continued followed-up without reinterventions. Conclusion Treating type Ⅱ endoleaks with coil embolization appears to be safe, and it can prevent aneurysm sac enlargement effectively. Because of the high risk of reoccurrence, follow-up after embolization is important.
