The use of non-contrast-enhanced MRI to evaluate serial changes in endoleaks after aortic stenting: a case report

BACKGROUND: Aortic dissection is a life-threatening syndrome that sometimes requires emergency intervention, and endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a treatment option. Long-term image follow-up is also required for patients after EVAR due to possible complications. CASE PRESENTATION: We p...

description BACKGROUND: Aortic dissection is a life-threatening syndrome that sometimes requires emergency intervention, and endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a treatment option. Long-term image follow-up is also required for patients after EVAR due to possible complications. CASE PRESENTATION: We present the case of a 73-year-old male with underlying chronic renal disease diagnosed with a type A aortic dissection who underwent EVAR. Four-dimensional (three spatial dimensions combined with time) phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (4D PC-MRI) was performed during regular follow-up in preference to contrast-enhanced computed tomography or simple MRI while taking his poor renal function into consideration. CONCLUSIONS: We considered this preferable given his issues with renal function.
