Abstract

Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair is widely used for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), but has a 10% to 40% incidence of type II endoleak during follow-up. There are various techniques to treat these endoleaks in the case of enlarging of the AAA, but the clinical effectiveness is low. In recent years, preemptive AAA sac embolization has shown some encouraging results with significant AAA shrinkage. However, the presence of embolic material can complicate continued endoleak detection making assessment of treatment outcome difficult. We investigate the ability of contrast-enhanced-ultrasound examination to detect endoleaks in patients undergoing preemptive coil embolization of the AAA sac.

评估造影剂增强超声波检测 EVAR 预防性卷绕后内漏的可行性：一项试点研究

血管内主动脉瘤修补术被广泛用于治疗腹主动脉瘤（AAA），但在随访期间，II型内漏的发生率为10%至40%。在 AAA 扩大的情况下，有多种技术可以治疗这些内漏，但临床效果不佳。近年来，先发制人的 AAA 囊栓塞术取得了一些令人鼓舞的效果，AAA 显著缩小。然而，栓塞物质的存在会使持续的内漏检测变得复杂，从而使治疗效果的评估变得困难。我们研究了对比增强超声检查在接受先发制人的 AAA 囊线圈栓塞术患者中检测内漏的能力。
