Objective: To analyse case reports published on the latest generations of endograft (EG) and understand the mechanisms of type III endoleak (EL) development.
Methods: A literature review was undertaken of English language case reports and series that concerned modular junction or component disconnection (type IIIa EL) and fabric perforations (type IIIb EL) after endovascular aneurysm repair.
Results: Of the 2 785 studies, 56 full texts were chosen to review 73 cases.
Objective: To analyse explanted endografts (EGs) and describe fabric degradation responsible for type IIIb endoleaks.
Methods: As part of the European collaborative retrieval programme, 32 EGs with fabric defects on macroscopic evaluation were selected. The explanted EGs were processed and studied based on the ISO 9001 certified standard protocol.
Article Synopsis
- * In one case, an Aorfix endograft and in another an Endurant II endograft were implanted in elderly patients, both had EAs added to address persistent type Ia endoleaks, but ultimately required emergency explantation.
- * Findings indicated that the penetration of EAs caused damage to the endograft, such as alterations in textile structure, tears in the fibers and binding threads, and negative interactions with endograft
Case Report: Classical surgical options for renal artery aneurysm (RAA) are usually restricted to endovascular surgery or open repair, either using an in-situ or ex-situ approach. A 45-year-old woman presenting with a 20-mm complex RAA with hilum location, not suitable for endovascular repair renal was treated with a mini-invasive robotic approach. This approach allowed an in-situ reconstruction in a complete mini-invasive manner with the Da Vinci Xi robot (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, CA).

There is still a lack of evidence concerning treatment options. The aim of this study is to review reported cases of lower-limb RIA in order to provide guidelines for management.
