Article Abstract
We report a case of combined types IIIb and Ia endoleak that developed 6 years after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) with the Endurant II® endograft for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). The patient presented with post-EVAR AAA rupture and underwent emergency open repair. We observed types IIIb and Ia endoleak and successfully performed felt banding to preserve the stent graft. Type IIIb endoleak with the Endurant® endograft is rare, and treatments have not been fully established. We summarized the case reports regarding type IIIb endoleak with the Endurant® endograft and mainly discussed the treatments.
