Our aim is to report the preliminary results of the E-Tegra endograft in infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) performed in 15 high-volume centers.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The e-Tegra Italian endoGraft REgistry (TIGRE) is a prospectively maintained database of consecutive EVAR with the E-Tegra stent-graft across 15 participating centers between March 2021 and March 2023. The registry records baseline clinical data, anatomic measurements of the abdominal aorta, perioperative and postoperative outcomes, with a scheduled follow-up period of 3 years for all patients. This is a preliminary analysis of the first results updated to January 2024. The primary endpoints are technical and clinical success, perioperative mortality, freedom from endograft rupture, and aortic-related mortality. The secondary endpoints are freedom from reintervention, and any type of endoleak (EL). The results were analyzed in relation with the anatomic characteristics of the AAAs, namely, iliac axes tortuosity and proximal neck hostility.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The registry included 147 consecutive EVAR (138 elective and 9 in emergent setting), 7 of which were associated with an iliac branch implantation. Ninety patients had at least 1 criterion of anatomical hostility, and 25 were treated outside the device IFU. Primary technical success was achieved in 146 cases (99.3%) and assisted success in 147 (100%), with no perioperative mortality. After a median follow-up period of 20 months, no aneurysm-related mortality occurred. Reinterventions were 5: 2 for type IB EL and 3 for type II ELs with aneurysm sac increase. Five more type II ELs with aneurysm sac stability are under observation. No differences in terms of reinterventions were noted between aneurysms with standard and hostile anatomy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The E-Tegra endograft is safe and effective in treating AAAs with standard and hostile anatomy, with a low rate of complications and reinterventions, although longer-term outcomes and larger numbers are needed to compare its performances related to specific anatomic criteria.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical Impact<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This multi-center nationwide Registry reports a real-world experience of EVAR performed with the E-Tegra abdominal endograft across 15 high-volume Centers, providing early- and mid-term device-specific results, which will help vascular surgeons in endograft selection. In particular, this study focuses on clinical results obtained in treating aneurysms with hostile anatomy, analyzing the performances of the E-Tegra endograft in cases of hostile proximal necks and narrow or tortuous iliac axes.<\/jats:p>\n
