Introduction: Ongoing innovations in the minimally invasive management of complex abdominal aortic aneurysms (cAAA), including physician-modified endografts (PMEG) and, more recently, Fiber Optic RealShape (FORS) technology, have allowed vascular surgeons to expand surgical indications and complexity of care to this multifaceted patient population. Prior analyses have demonstrated intraoperative advantages of FORS in the management of cAAA for lower total procedural radiation and cannulation tasks, however, few analyses have evaluated the technology's effect on peri- and post-operative outcomes.
Methods: All PMEGs performed at our institution between 2020-2024 were retrospectively reviewed.

Department of Oncology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University, Dalian, China.
Bevacizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), was the first anti-angiogenic agent incorporated into metastatic colorectal cancer treatment strategies and demonstrated broad-spectrum anti-tumor efficacy. Commonly reported adverse events include hypertension, proteinuria, gastrointestinal perforation, bleeding, and thromboembolism. However, there are only a few reports on abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) as a complication of bevacizumab therapy.
