Abstract

Read online

Endoleaks are a common complication of endovascular aortic aneurysm repair and often lead to aneurysm rupture. We report a complex case of a Type IIIA endoleak in a patient with suspected cholangitis. Immediate surgical measures to manage both the cholangitis and endoleak were performed while minimizing the risk of graft infection.
