In clinical practice a lot of EVAR cases are performed IFU for adverse neck anatomy(6) with acceptable short- and mid-term outcomes, but the long-term durability is currently an issue (7). Neck length shorter than 15 mm and angulation are two of. neck charteristics. that contribute more to define an "hostile neck" (8). The issue linked to the anatomical not feasibility of standard EVAR in patients not eligible for OR can be solved with custom made devices (CMD), but they were limited by high production costs and long time for creations (10-12 weeks)1. Nowadays no one off-the-shelf device aimed to overcome neck hostility in AAA is available on the market. The present study aims at evaluating the anatomical applicability of an off-the-shelf scalloped stent-graft to treat infrarenal AAA with a short and/or angulated neck.
