Summary

This study explores the use of physician-modified stent grafts (PMSGs) for treating abdominal aortic aneurysms that are unsuitable for open surgery or standard endovascular grafts. Custom-made fenestrated endografts are not viable in urgent or symptomatic cases due to lengthy manufacturing times. Although off-the-shelf branched devices are more readily available, they present challenges such as high costs, extensive thoracic coverage, limited long-term data, and anatomical restrictions. Parallel graft techniques are also associated with concerns regarding their durability. PMSG procedures, however, are not standardized and rely heavily on the physician's experience and expertise. The aim of this comprehensive study is to establish expert consensus on the indications, planning protocols, and procedural techniques for PMSGs.
