In recent years, endovascular aortic repair has become one of the standard treatments for aortic aneurysms. However, when the aneurysm involves the branches of the abdominal aorta or the aortic arch, the procedure becomes more complex and often necessitates surgical reconstruction of the involved branches. To address these challenges, the use of physician-modified endografts in which fenestrations are manually created by physicians has been reported. This approach, known as fenestrated and branched endovascular aortic repair, involves the placement of small-diameter bridging stent grafts through the fenestrations, and its utility has recently been highlighted. Herein, we report a case of successful fenestrated and branched endovascular aortic repair using physician-modified endografts in a patient with both thoracoabdominal and aortic arch aneurysms.
