A multi-institutional survey of interventional radiology for type II endoleaks after endovascular aortic repair: questionnaire results from the Japanese Society of Endoluminal Metallic Stents and Grafts in Japan

Conclusion This is the first report of a multi-institutional questionnaire survey of IR procedures for T2EL after EVAR in Japan that was conducted to determine the current status. Enlargement of aneurysm size after embolization was more frequently seen in the imaging failure group. It is important to embolize both branch and sac to achieve imaging success, regardless of embolic material. Long-term outcomes need to be investigated.
