title: A Right Intercosto-Bronchial Artery Derived from the Thyrocervical Trunk: An Unusual Cause of Type II Endoleak Post Thoracic Aortic Stenting.
abstract: The aetiology, incidence and management of type II endoleaks in standard infrarenal endovascular aortic aneurysm repair is well described. Far less data is available for thoracic stent grafting. We present a rare and interesting case of a type II endoleak post thoracic aortic stenting and highlight the aberrant anatomy that can cause this phenomenon in such cases.
