Patients were stratified into two groups: the simulation group (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      =72) and non-simulation group (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      =81). For the simulation cohort, personalized three-dimensional models of the stent frame and covered graft were constructed based on preprocedural computed tomography angiography, followed by computational simulation. The predictive performance of the simulation was evaluated by comparing simulated hemodynamic parameters with postprocedural measurements. The primary endpoint was the procedural success rate.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The overall cohort had an average age of 67.1\u2009\u00b1\u20099.1 years, with 66.0% being male.
