OBJECTIVES Unexplained aneurysm growth despite multimodality imaging following EVAR is often attributed to endotension. We tested a hypothesis that endotension may be from type 1a endoleak (EL) pressurizing the sac without net forward flow, not visualized on standard angiographic imaging. METHODS A patient-specific aortic phantom was constructed of polyvinyl alcohol using 3D molding techniques. bifurcated stent graft implanted and connected hemodynamic simulator for testing. Type ELs were...
