Internal Iliac Artery Aneurysm Ruptures with No Visualized Endoleak 2 Years after Endovascular Repair

We report a case of an 83-year-old man with a ruptured internal iliac artery (IIA) aneurysm after endovascular repair, which was treated via the ligation of IIA and tight suture of the aneurysm sac. Although there were no findings of obvious endoleak after endovascular treatment, the IIA aneurysm in...

Sumario:We report a case of an 83-year-old man with a ruptured internal iliac artery (IIA) aneurysm after endovascular repair, which was treated via the ligation of IIA and tight suture of the aneurysm sac. Although there were no findings of obvious endoleak after endovascular treatment, the IIA aneurysm increased in size and eventually ruptured. We presumed that pressure to IIA aneurysm via the embolized IIA led to rupture. Aneurysm sac expansion may lead to a rupture despite no endoleak being detected; therefore, close follow-up or re-intervention must be considered. Tight embolization of IIA may prevent endotension in the same case.
