Early Experience With the Nexus Aortic Arch Endograft for Endovascular Treatment of Complex Aortic Arch Pathologies Beyond Standard Indications

Our findings highlight the potential for expanding the clinical use of the Nexus stent-graft beyond its current IFU, offering a safe and effective alternative for complex aortic arch anatomies. With high technical success and no perioperative cerebrovascular events, these results suggest that carefully selected patients who are otherwise ineligible for surgery may still benefit from endovascular repair. This study provides real-world evidence supporting the reconsideration of IFU criteria, potentially broadening treatment options. The innovation lies in demonstrating that even outside IFU conditions, the Nexus endograft maintains a strong safety profile, paving the way for more inclusive patient selection.
