Table 1 Frequency of type II endoleak according to the patency of IMA and number of patent LA.

Number of patent LA with diameter≧2.0 mm
none or 1 2 or more
Occluded IMA 8.3% (1/12) 50.0% (1/2)
Patent IMA with diameter<2.5 mm 46.2% (6/13) 66.7% (2/3)
Patent IMA with diameter≧2.5 mm 87.5% (14/16) 66.7% (2/3)

The frequency of type II endoleak was about 90% when IMA with diameter≧2.5 mm was patent regardless the number of patent LA with diameter≧2.0 mm. When IMA with diameter<2.5 mm was patent or 2 or more LA with diameter≧2.0 mm were patent, type II endoleak was detected about half of patients. IMA: inferior mesenteric artery; LA: lumbar artery
