Importance of Follow-up Imaging in the Detection of Delayed Type 2 Endoleaks Despite Complete Aneurysmal Sac Shrinkage

Type 2 endoleaks usually constitute a benign and self-limited phenomenon, which rarely leads to aneurysmal sac expansion. However, in a small subset of patients, a persistent type 2 endoleak might pressurise the aneurysmal sac causing expansion. The authors present two cases with delayed new-onset t...

description Type 2 endoleaks usually constitute a benign and self-limited phenomenon, which rarely leads to aneurysmal sac expansion. However, in a small subset of patients, a persistent type 2 endoleak might pressurise the aneurysmal sac causing expansion. The authors present two cases with delayed new-onset type 2 endoleak.

Accordingly, there is a risk of sac re-expansion due to delayed onset endoleaks, independent of the technique, justifying the need for a continuous follow-up despite long-term aneurysmal sac shrinkage.
