Symptoms
The person who is suffering from endoleaks may not even know about it because, usually, you do not feel any kind of symptoms. If a person who has gone through an endovascular aneurysm repair experiences an expansion of the aneurysm, there should be a proper investigation to know the reasons and consequences of the aneurysm enlargement.
Diagnosis
If you are a person who has gone through an aortic aneurysm repair, you may need to have lifelong medical imaging surveillance to make sure the condition does not occur again. There many imaging techniques that can be used to detect the Endoleaks.
Treatment
The kind of method which will be the best for the treatment of endoleaks is determined by examining the characteristics of the endoleak and the extent of the patient’s ability to undergo a surgical repair. If surgical repair is possible, invasive procedures involving the introduction of an object in the body have become the best option. These invasive treatment procedures also help in repairing the endoleak, so that there will be no flow of blood in the aneurysm.
