Abstract

Case:We present a case of a 66-year-old man with lumbar vertebral body erosions after glue embolization of a Type II endoleak secondary to endovascular repair of an infrarenal aortic aneurysm. Multiple biopsies of the affected vertebrae were culture-negative confirming no evidence of infection. He underwent posterior spinal fusion from L2 to L5 with complete resolution of mechanical low back pain and improved functional outcomes.Conclusion:Vertebral body osseous erosion is a rare complication of aortic endoleak intervention that can be successfully treated with spinal fusion.
