Abstract

Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has become prevalent and is expanding beyond conventional indications. A type I endoleak in the aortic neck is one of the main complications after EVAR, which limits long-term survival and requires immediate intervention. We experienced three cases of successful treatment of a type I endoleak after EVAR with adjunctive procedures and report them with a literature review.
