Abstrakt:	Purpose: The detection of type II endoleak one month after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is usually neglected or considered benign. Aim of this report is to present a case of post-EVAR rupture, due to type II endoleak, and discuss on pathophysiology and differential diagnosis. Case Report: We present a case of a 67-year-old male who was treated with EVAR for an asymptomatic abdominal aortic aneurysm and four months later, he presented with a contained rupture due to a type II endoleak. The patient was treated conservatively without any intervention with satisfying result. Conclusions: We are demonstrating conservative management as a valid therapeutic option for patients presenting with a contained post-EVAR rupture. (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc.
