Purpose The aim of this paper is to report our experience of type II endoleak treatment after endovascular aneurysm repair with intra-arterial injection of the embolizing liquid material, Onyx liquid embolic system. Methods From 2005 to 2012, we performed a retrospective review of 600 patients, who underwent endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. During this period, 18 patients were treated with Onyx for type II endoleaks. Principal findings The source of the endoleak was the internal iliac artery in seven cases, inferior mesenteric artery in seven cases and lumbar arteries in four cases. Immediate technical success was achieved in all patients and no endoleak from the treated vessel recurred. During a mean follow-up of 19 months, no major morbidity or mortality occurred, and one-year survival was 100%. Conclusions Treatment of type II endoleaks with Onyx is safe and effective over a significant time period.

We present a case of a 72-year-old male with an abdominal aortic aneurysm status post-endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Follow-up imaging demonstrated an enlarging type II endoleak and attempts at transarterial coil embolization of the inferior mesenteric artery were unsuccessful. The patient underwent image-guided percutaneous translumbar type II endoleak repair using XperGuide (Philips, Andover, MA USA).

Introduction We performed a single-center nonrandomized study on patients who underwent endovascular aneurysm repair using polymer-filled or other self-expanding endografts. Methods Consecutive patients with asymptomatic infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms who underwent endovascular repair were retrospectively reviewed. They were divided into a polymer-filled ( n = 20) or self-expanding group ( n = 42). Baseline characteristics, operative mortality and morbidity, and follow-up data were compared. Results Aneurysm diameter, neck and iliac morphologies did not differ between the two groups. Technical success was 100%. The 30-day mortality was 0% and 2.4% in the polymer-filled and self-expanding group, respectively. At a mean follow-up of 17 months, the changes in sac size were −2.1 mm and −5.1 mm ( p = 0.144) at one year, and −3.5 mm and −7.7 mm ( p = 0.287) at 2 years in the polymer-filled and self-expanding group, respectively. The polymer-filled group had 7 (35%) type II endoleaks, and the self-expanding group had 1 (2.4%) type Ia and 13 (31%) type II endoleaks. Neck diameter remained stable in the polymer-filled stent-grafts whereas there was progressive neck degeneration in the self-expanding group. The rates of reintervention and overall survival were similar in both groups. The presence of an endoleak was the only predictor of non-regression of the aneurysm (odds ratio = 17.00, 95% confidence interval: 4.46–64.88, p < 0.001). Conclusion Polymer-filled endografts had similar safety, effectiveness, and durability to other self-expanding endografts. The major advantage is the small iliofemoral access. They also have the potential long-term benefit of a more stable neck.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence, risk factors, and outcome of endoleaks related to endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) procedure at a single center with up to 10 years’ surveillance. Materials and Methods: All patients treated with EVAR for an abdominal aorta or iliac aneurysm in a 10-year period at a single cardiovascular center in Denmark were included. Data were collected from a national database and patient journals. Follow-up computed tomography angiography and plain abdominal X-ray reports were reviewed. Results: A total of 421 patients were included. There were 125 endoleaks observed in 117 (27.8%) patients after a median 95 days (interquartile range: 90-106 days). There were 16 type I, 107 type II, 1 type III, and 1 type V endoleaks. A total of 33 (7.8%) patients had at least 1 reintervention. Patients with type II endoleaks had significantly fewer active smokers and lower plasma creatinine at baseline. They also more often had one, or both, internal iliac arteries embolized as well as an identified endoleak at the procedural completion angiogram. Non-type II endoleaks were associated with internal iliac artery embolization. There was no association between the occurrence of endoleaks and increased mortality. Conclusion: Type II endoleaks are common after EVAR, yet few lead to reintervention. Absence of smoking, low plasma creatinine, embolized iliac arteries, and endoleak on completion angiogram were associated with type II endoleaks, whereas only embolized iliac arteries were associated with non-type II endoleaks. Overall, endoleaks are not associated with increased mortality.

The aim of the present paper is to evaluate the long-term outcomes of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for challenging aortic necks. Subgroup analyses were performed on 156 patients from the prospective multicenter Talent eLPS (enhanced Low Profile Stent Graft System) trial. Patients with high-risk aortic necks (length < 15 mm or diameter ≥28 mm) were compared with the remaining patients. Patients with high-risk ( n = 86) and low-risk necks ( n = 70) had similar age and gender distribution. Despite similar prevalences of co-morbidities, the high-risk group had higher Society for Vascular Surgery scores. The high-risk group also had larger maximum aneurysm diameters (56.6 versus 53.0 mm, P < 0.02). There were lower freedoms from major adverse events (MAEs) for the high-risk group at 30 days (84.9 versus 95.7%; P < 0.04) and 365 days (73.4 versus 89.2%; P = 0.02). Effectiveness endpoints at 12 m showed no significant differences. Freedom from all-cause mortality at 30 days (96.5 versus 100%) and aneurysm-related mortality at 365 days (96.0 versus 100%) were similar. At five years, there were no differences in endoleaks or change in aneurysm diameter. All migrations occurred in the high-risk group. The five-year freedom from aneurysm-related mortality for the high- and low-risk groups was 93.2 and 100%, respectively. In conclusion, despite a higher rate of MAEs within the first year and higher migration rates at five years, EVAR in aneurysms with challenging aortic necks can be treated with acceptable long-term results.
