We report in the case of a patient with an intra‐abdominal aortic aneurysm treated with endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) who developed renal impairment during the period of follow up. The repair was complicated with an early‐onset type II endoleak which later evolved into a late‐onset type I endoleak. It was treated with proximal extension of stent graft, with treatment success and follow‐up documented on contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). This case illustrates the usefulness of CEUS in post‐EVAR surveillance and emphasizes the need for life‐long monitoring as late‐onset complications are not uncommon.
