Type II Endoleak embolized with Embold™ Fibered Coils
Presentation
History of endovascular aneurysm repair for an abdominal aortic aneurysm in 2015 presenting with a type II endoleak with an enlarging aneurysm sac.
Intervention
A translumbar direct sac approach for embolization was chosen due to a long tortuous transarterial approach via the SMA. An 18 G, 15 cm biopsy needle was placed into the endoleak cavity. A 2.8 F microcatheter was coaxially placed through the needle into the cavity and 12 Embold Fibered Coils were delivered into the cavity.
Outcome
Successful occlusion of the endoleak cavity was achieved following translumbar direct sac embolization.
