Rationale

The section was updated to include recent evidence (2025) regarding the application of hybrid and endovascular techniques in mesenteric ischemia, which is a key area for hybrid intervention. I also expanded the abbreviation TEA (thromboendarterectomy) upon its first use in the section as per the instructions, while preserving the existing table and citation.

CombineHybrid approaches combine open and endovascular methods, e.g.,such as iliac stenting +with femoral TEAthromboendarterectomy (TEA) or visceral debranching +combined with thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR), offering flexibility for complex anatomy [@bisdas2013]. These techniques are increasingly utilized in the management of acute and chronic mesenteric ischemia, where hybrid strategies may facilitate revascularization in anatomically challenging scenarios [@alonso2025-endovascular].

**Table 1.2. Comparison of Treatment Options**

| **Approach** | **Advantages** | **Disadvantages** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Open** | Durable outcomes, proven long-term survival | Higher perioperative risk, longer recovery |
| **Endovascular** | Minimally invasive, lower perioperative risk | Requires surveillance, higher reintervention rates |
| **Hybrid** | Tailored to complex cases | Technically demanding, resource-intensive |
