  "abstract": "Background: Type II endoleaks (T2ELs) are a frequent complication after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), posing a risk of aneurysm expansion. This review evaluates modern techniques for T2ELs management, moving beyond traditional embolization methods.\n\nMethods: Recent controlled trials and observational studies were analyzed to trace evidence on conventional and novel techniques employed in managing T2ELs.\n\nResults: Novel techniques, such as transcaval embolization (TCE) and laser-assisted transgraft embolization (LATE), have demonstrated encouraging early technical and clinical outcomes, although the available evidence remains limited. In addition, shape memory polymer (SMP) embolization resulted in significant sac shrinkage in >85% of patients and prevented clinically significant T2ELs.\n\nConclusions: TCE, LATE, and prophylactic SMP embolization are promising alternatives to conventional methods, offering high technical success and the potential to reduce reinterventions. Larger studies are needed to confirm long-term outcomes and define optimal use.",
