Abstract
PURPOSE The study aimed to compare the cost and efficacy of translumbar approach type 2 endoleak repairs using either Trufill® or Histoacryl® n-BCA liquid embolic. METHOD AND MATERIALS This was a retrospective review of patients who had translumbar approach type 2 endoleak repairs using either Trufill® or Histoacryl®. Patients were included if they underwent a technically successful type 2 endoleak repair via a translumbar approach with Trufill® or Histoacryl® n-BCA. A multivariable analysis was performed with the primary clinical outcome of percent change in aneurysm diameter per month compared. Procedure cost was calculated based on typical materials used. RESULTS 20 Trufill® and 14 Histoacryl® patients were included. The mean procedure cost was higher for Trufill® ($5,757.30 vs. $1,586.09, p ≤ 0.001). There was no significant difference between Trufill® or Histoacryl® patients for age at first embolization, gender, total number of embolizations, number of feeding branches, aneurysm sac size prior to embolization, or residual endoleak at first follow-up. Trufill® patients had more coils used (12.0 vs. 4.3, p = 0.0007), less glue used (0.9 vs. 2.1 mL, p < 0.001), longer follow-up duration (33.5 vs. 13.2 months, p = 0.002), more follow-up CT angiograms (CTA) (3.7 vs. 1.9, p = 0.01), and larger excluded aneurysm sac size at most recent CTA (7.1 cm vs. 5.9 cm, p = 0.04). Percent change in sac diameter per month was not significantly different between Trufill® and Histoacryl® (0.21% vs. -0.25%/month, p = 0.06, respectively). There were no complications. CONCLUSION Use of Histoacryl® over Trufill® n-BCA resulted in significantly less procedural cost while maintaining safety and efficacy.

Abstract
Cyanoacrylate “glue” has been used in a variety of surgical disciplines. In vascular surgery, it has been used to seal type II endoleaks after endovascular aneurysm repair. In this case, we report a rare complication after translumbar injection of n-butyl cyanoacrylate to occlude a persistent type II endoleak. The cyanoacrylate resulted in significant compression of the right iliac graft limb with reduced distal perfusion.

Abstract
Type II endoleak is a common complication that develops after endovascular aneurysm repair. Patients with type II endoleak, which has persisted for 6 months, have a significantly higher rate of aneurysmal sac enlargement, reintervention, and rupture. To date, several studies have examined the effectiveness of preoperative embolization of branch vessels for the prevention of type II endoleak. Particularly, the embolization of the large inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) seems to be a precise, safe, and effective method. IMA is a significant risk factor for type II endoleak. However, there is currently no strong evidence to prove which patients would benefit from preventive IMA embolization. In addition, considering the incidence of type II endoleak and the adverse event rate, routine embolization seems to be unreliable and time-consuming. Moreover, previous reports of preoperative IMA embolization were retrospective. Thus, prospective and randomized studies are necessary so that the usefulness of IMA embolization can be proved and the potential benefits can be assessed. To establish preventive IMA embolization as one of the effective therapeutic strategies to prevent type II endoleak and to maximize its therapeutic effect, we should provide a wide range of therapeutic strategies to suit the state of the patient.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The efficacy and need for secondary interventions for type II endoleaks following endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) remain controversial. This systematic review aimed at investigating the clinical outcomes of different type II endoleak treatments in patients with a persistent type II endoleak after EVAR. DATA SOURCES Embase, Medline via Ovid, Web of Science Core Collection, the Cochrane CENTRAL, and Google Scholar. REVIEW METHODS This systematic review was performed in accordance with the PRISMA Statement. Outcomes of interest were technical and clinical success, change in sac diameter, complications, need for additional interventions, abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture, and (AAA related) mortality. Meta-analyses were performed with random effects models. RESULTS A total of 59 studies were included, with a cumulative cohort of 1073 patients with persistent type II endoleak. Peri-operative complications following treatment of type II endoleaks occurred in 3.8% of patients (95% CI 2.7-5.2%), and AAA related mortality was 1.8% (95% CI 1.1-2.7%). Overall technical success was 87.9% (95% CI 83.1-92.1%), while clinical success was 68.4% (95% CI 61.2-75.1%). Among studies detailing sac dynamics, decrease or stable sac, with or without resolution, was achieved in 78.4% (95% CI 70.2-85.6%). Changes in sac diameter following type II endoleak treatment were documented in 157 patients to at least 24 months. Within this group an actual decrease in sac diameter was reported in only 27 of 40 patients. CONCLUSION There is little evidence supporting the efficacy of secondary intervention for type II endoleaks after EVAR. Although generally safe, the lack of evidence supporting the efficacy of type II endoleak treatment leads to difficulty in assessing its merits.

Abstract
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is increasingly used in the treatment of acute type B aortic dissection. Type Ia endoleaks are a common complication of the procedure, but its clinical significance and the best treatment strategy remain poorly defined. We present a case of a type Ia endoleak following TEVAR in the treatment of acute type B aortic dissection. Chimney technique approach was used in an attempt to seal the endoleak. Although technical success was suboptimal, the patient remained clinically stable and event free. Data regarding the natural course and management of type Ia endoleaks following TEVAR for aortic dissection are sparse. Future research is required to establish the clinical and technical determinants of the need to treat these endoleaks and the best treatment strategy.

Abstract
Cyanoacrylates are a group of fast-acting adhesives. They form low viscosity liquids in the monomer state and instantly polymerize to become adhesive upon contact with ionic substances. Since the 1950s, they have been used around the world for industrial and household purposes. N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) is a cyanoacrylate that is commonly used for medical care, and the closure of skin wounds with NBCA has been found to promote hemostasis. However, in Japan, the intravascular injection of NBCA is considered to be off-label use, except during the treatment of gastric varices under endoscopy. The use of NBCA in embolotherapy is considered when the target vessels cannot be cannulated superselectively, for vascular diseases that require long segments of the target vessel to be embolized, or for patients in a hypocoagulable state. NBCA-based embolotherapy can be used to treat vascular malformations, acute hemorrhaging, tumors, and venous disease. The complications associated with NBCA-based embolotherapy include tissue ischemia, hemorrhaging, systemic or local reactions, and catheter adhesion to blood vessels. NBCA is mixed with Lipiodol to make it radiopaque and to adjust its polymerization time. Since there are various technical aspects to performing NBCA-based embolotherapy safely, it should be carried out by, or with the assistance of, proficient interventional radiologists.
