Abstract
Endoleaks are a frequent and well-known complication after endovascular repair of aortic aneurysms. An endoleak can lead to increased intrasac pressure, sac enlargement, and potential aneurysm rupture. Type II endoleaks result from retrograde filling of aortic branch vessels and can be treated with surgical, endovascular, or direct percutaneous approaches. Direct percutaneous treatment typically involves embolization of the perfused endoleak cavity typically using a translumbar approach with fluoroscopic guidance. We illustrate a novel image-guided approach for percutaneous transabdominal endoleak treatment using contrast-enhanced ultrasound in combination with fluoroscopy.
