Ten patients were treated with PMEG and 10 with commercially available IBDs. Primary outcomes were technical success and IIA branch patency. Secondary outcomes included operative time, back-table modification time, endoleaks, reinterventions, and perioperative outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Technical success was achieved in all patients. Internal iliac artery branch patency was 100% at 1 and 3 months in both groups and remained 100% in the PMEG group vs 90% in the IBD group at 12 months. No type I\/III endoleaks or iliac-related reinterventions occurred. Operative time was similar between groups, while mean PMEG modification time was 61.5 \u00b1 26.4 minutes. No modification-related complications or procedure-related mortality occurred.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The PMEG appears to be a feasible option for IIA preservation in patients with narrow iliac anatomy, demonstrating favorable early outcomes. Given the pilot design, small sample size, and limited follow-up, these findings should be interpreted cautiously and require validation in larger prospective studies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical Impact<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>PMEGs may be a feasible option for IIA preservation in patients with narrow CIA anatomy when standard IBDs are limited by profile or availability. This approach may expand endovascular options in selected cases, emphasizing careful planning and technical flexibility.
