Abstract

EVAR has been used clinically for almost three decades, and it has been widely applied in clinical practice and has been applied to difficult cases as devices and techniques have evolved. Although the major advantage of EVAR is its lower perioperative mortality, compared with open surgery, late-onset complications such as endoleaks have become major issues, requiring lifelong follow-up after EVAR. The clinical guidelines have been updated, and many systematic reviews/meta-analyses and multi-center registries have been published; surgeons must keep up-to-date regarding these changes. In this review, the author reviews evidence on the recent update of the type 2 endoleak management.
