Treatment of Type I Endoleak after Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair and Stent Extension via False Lumen Catheterization and Coil Embolization
2018, Annals of Vascular SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Two endovascular strategies are generally used to occlude a type I endoleak. The first strategy is proximal extension of the graft to seal the endoleak using hybrid arch debranching4 or chimney techniques5; the other technique is to embolize the endoleak channel via direct transthoracic puncture6 or engage the endoleak site through the ascending aorta in the case of an aneurysm.7 In this case, the expansion of the false lumen and the refractory pleural effusion caused by the type I endoleak indicated that the pressure of the false lumen was increased and should be treated as soon as possible.
Early and midterm outcomes after transcatheter embolization of type I endoleaks in 25 patients
2017, Journal of Vascular SurgeryCitation Excerpt :There have since been several published case series using a variety of agents, including coils, Gelfoam (Pfizer, New York, NY), thrombin, and N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA), or a combination of these. Several case reports on ELI embolization have also been published.12-17 The available published evidence of ELI embolization is summarized in Table VII.
Preemptive Aneurysm Sac Embolization for Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair With Inadequate Proximal Landing Zone
2016, Annals of Thoracic SurgeryCitation Excerpt :An additional graft or cuff has been recommended for treatment, with an option of open treatment only after extension of grafts failed [3]. Embolization of the aneurysmal sac by n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate glue had been reported as an alternative, when proximal extension of TEVAR was not feasible; however, it carries the risk of nontargeted embolization and subsequent stroke or catheter entrapments by the glue [6]. In our case of an inadequate proximal landing zone for zone 1 TEVAR, a type IA endoleak was anticipated and was treated in a single-stage hybrid procedure, with a preemptive and targeted embolization of the aneurysmal sac by the retrievable Penumbra Ruby Coil system.
