Film evaluation summary: the exact source and cause of the endoleak seen during final angiogram could not be determined from the films provided.Two short videos, 11 sec & 14 seconds in length, confirmed widespread contrast blush within the aaa sac.The endoleak appeared to be coming primarily from the left side of the bifurcate just above the level of the flow divider.While a type iii fabric endoleak cannot be ruled out, this appears most likely to have been an acute type iv blush endoleak caused by fabric porosity.Other factors such as heparin dose, outflow resistance, and volume of the aneurysm sac may have also contributed to this likely type iv endoleak.Pending if information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
