A dynamic 4D CT angiography was performed to confirm a suspected endoleak after EVAR and to specify its type.

A 72-year-old male patient with poor kidney function (GFR 40 mL/min) was admitted to the hospital with a suspected endoleak after an endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) of the abdominal aorta. A dynamic 4D CT angiography (CTA) was requested to confirm the endoleak and to specify its type.
