Atypical Endoleak Associated With Inadvertent Cannulation of the Ipsilateral Gate in an Ovation Trimodular Stent-Graft.

We report on a 54-year-old man who presented with an atypical, proximal, intraoperative endoleak after endovascular aortic repair with an Ovation endograft for a 65-mm-diameter abdominal aortic aneurysm. The endografting was complicated by inadvertent bilateral iliac limb insertion into the right gate without cannulation of the left gate. The endoleak was treated by brachial approach: Through the open left gate, the outflow inferior mesenteric artery was coil embolized and the inflow left gate was closed with an Amplatzer plug.

Incidence, etiology, and management of type III endoleak after endovascular aortic repair.

Objective: The objective of this study was to retrospectively assess the incidence, etiology, and management of type III endoleaks in a large cohort of patients treated with endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) in two European university centers.

Methods: From 1995 until 2014, 965 EVAR procedures were performed with use of first- and second-generation (n = 79) or third-generation (n = 886) endografts. Radiologic follow-up was performed with computed tomography and abdominal plain film examinations in accordance with the European Collaborators on Stent/graft Techniques for aortic Aneurysm Repair (EUROSTAR) scheme.

Intra-articular synovial lipoma of the knee joint.

We present a rare case of an intra-articular synovial lipoma, which was diagnosed in a patient after a knee trauma. MRI is the imaging modality of choice to suggest the diagnosis preoperatively, by demonstrating a well-delineated fat-containing lesion. The differential diagnosis of an intra-articular lipomatous lesion consists of lipoma arborescens and synovial lipoma.
