Abstract
An 83-year-old man underwent embolization for a type 2 endoleak following endovascular aortic repair for an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The type 2 endoleak originated from the left iliac circumflex artery, which was located very close to the puncture site in the left femoral artery. This proximity made the embolization procedure challenging; however, by employing a combination of a micropuncture introducer set and a triple-coaxial system, embolization with N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate was successfully achieved.
