An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a dilatation of the abdominal aorta above 3 cm or 50% greater than the segment above. It is a dangerous condition accounting for a substantial number of deaths per year and increasing at an alarming rate. Various factors come into play in the development of AAAs, which this study has elaborated on, including smoking and old age, demographics, and comorbid conditions. Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a newer treatment modality used for AAAs in which an endograft device is placed into the aorta, thereby creating a bypass tract from the aneurysm and generating flow mimicking that of the natural aorta. It is minimally invasive and associated with less postoperative mortality and reduced hospital stay. However, EVAR is also associated with significant postoperative complications, including endoleaks, which were reviewed in depth. Endoleaks are postprocedural leaks into the aneurysm sac that are usually identified immediately after graft placement and indicate treatment failure. They are of five subtypes, categorized according to their mechanism of development. The most common type is type II endoleaks, and the most dangerous is type I endoleaks. Each subtype has multiple management options with varying rates of success. Prompt identification along with appropriate treatment of endoleaks can lead to better postoperative outcomes and improved quality of life for patients.
