Significant diameter mismatch was defined as &gt;20% difference in the nominal diameter between the intended proximal and distal landing zones.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patient A was an 84-year-old man with prior abdominal aortic aneurysm open repair with a straight 20\u2009mm Dacron tube. He presented with a right common iliac artery aneurysm (\u00d888\u2009mm) with contained rupture. The Gore Viabahn endoprosthesis (9\u2009mm\u2009\u00d7\u20095\u2009cm) was inserted proximally about 15\u2009mm above the occluded ostium of the internal iliac artery. Subsequently, the BeGraft Aortic\u00ae (16\u2009mm\u2009\u00d7\u200948\u2009mm) was inserted proximally up to the common iliac artery origin; its proximal portion was flared to 22\u2009mm. Patient B was a 77-year-old man with prior endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair with a Medtronic Endurant stent-graft. He presented with occlusion of the right limb of the aortic endoprosthesis and thrombosis that extended down to the level of the superficial femoral artery. After mechanical thrombectomy, two Gore Viabahn endoprosthesis (first one, 8\u2009mm\u2009\u00d7\u200910\u2009cm; second one, 10\u2009mm\u2009\u00d7\u200915\u2009cm) were inserted into the right iliac limb. Subsequently, the BeGraft Aortic\u00ae (12mm\u2009\u00d7\u200939mm) was inserted proximally up to the gate of the aortic stent-graft; its proximal portion was flared to 16\u2009mm.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Technical success and clinical success were achieved in both patients. Imaging follow-up (6\u2009months for Patient A, 12\u2009months for Patient B) showed correct placement of all stent-grafts without any graft-related adverse event. The patients remained free from new reinterventions or recurrent symptoms. Patient A died 8\u2009months after the index procedure from acute respiratory failure after community acquired pneumonia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Secondary relining with focal flaring of novel-generation balloon-expandable covered stents for endovascular treatment of significant diameter mismatch in the aorto-iliac territory is safe and feasible.
