Abstract
This case illustrates management of a proximal type 1 endoleak post EVAR with a proximal cuff. Management of the resulting compromise to a renal artery is also illustrated.

ComplicationsEVARType 1 endoleakProximal cuffCase History
A 67-year-old man with an asymptomatic 7.3 cm AAA was referred for EVAR, and an Endurant bifurcated device (Medtronic Santa Rosa, CA) was implanted. Completion angiography confirmed successful deployment of the stent graft and the absence of any graft-related endoleak. The fabric markers were a few millimeters below the inferior margin of the renal arteries, but there appeared to be adequate apposition of fabric in the neck.
At 1-month follow-up CT scan, there was no evidence of a proximal type 1 endoleak (Fig. 16.1a
