Chimney endovascular aneurysm repair provides an endovascular treatment for complex aortic aneurysms. However, type I gutter endoleaks can complicate this approach and prevent full aneurysm exclusion. Treatment of these leaks can be challenging. We report successful embolization of a type I gutter endoleak after (chimney endovascular aneurysm repair) via a transcaval approach.
