Case History


A 78-year-old man presented with an 8.8-cm asymptomatic juxtarenal AAA and was referred for fenestrated endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (FEVAR). Following the implantation, a large type 2 endoleak was demonstrated on the 1-month baseline CT scan (Fig. 18.1a).

Six months later the endoleak was still present (Fig. 18.1c), the right limb of the graft had occluded, and the aneurysm had expanded to 10 cm (Fig. 18.1d
