Iliac artery aneurysm endoleak management in a patient with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome

Endovascular repair has traditionally been avoided in patients with connective tissue disorders. We describe successful treatment of multiple endoleaks of an expanding common iliac artery aneurysm previously treated with an endograft in a patient with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.

Description
Summary:Endovascular repair has traditionally been avoided in patients with connective tissue disorders. We describe successful treatment of multiple endoleaks of an expanding common iliac artery aneurysm previously treated with an endograft in a patient with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. The modalities used to treat the endoleaks were transgluteal embolization of the internal iliac artery and proximal and distal extension of the prior endograft. This case demonstrates endovascular management of endoleaks in patients with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome can be safe and feasible.
