  • Causa
    This specific subset of stent grafts has greater susceptibility to fabric permeability variations that may be associated with endoleaks observed during the initial implant procedure. at the time of implant procedure this permeability variation may cause the physician to categorize a type iv endoleak (which typically self-resolves over time) as an acute type iii fabric endoleak because the leak may appear to be focal or a localized leak as opposed to a diffused leak (blush). the misclassification as an acute type iii fabric endoleak may lead to unnecessary secondary interventions.
