Abstract

Since its approval as an occlusive device in the peripheral vasculature in 2004, the first-generation Amplatzer Vascular Plug (AVP; AGA Medical, Golden Valley, MN, USA) has already become a therapeutic alternative to coil embolization in dedicated cases. Here, we present for the first time, a case of type II endoleak from the left subclavian artery after thoracic stent-graft placement successfully treated with a second-generation AVP.
