Abstract
A transgraft embolization (TGE) technique was performed in a patient to treat a type II endoleak. Using a transfemoral arterial approach, the endograft was punctured using a coronary laser catheter aimed toward the type II endoleak nidus, which was treated with Onyx (Medtronic, Minneapolis, Minnesota). TGE resulted in successful embolization, as demonstrated on 1-year follow-up CT angiography, which showed complete elimination of the type II endoleak and shrinkage of the aneurysmal sac. TGE is an alternative to transarterial embolization, translumbar embolization, and transcaval embolization.
