Rationale

The section was updated to include acute infrarenal aortic occlusion as an additional example of the utility of hybrid approaches, supported by recent literature Loh SA et al. Hybrid aorto-iliac reconstruction for acute infrarenal aortic occlusion: A case report. Vascular. 2024. PMID: 39142331.. Abbreviations were expanded per the instructions to ensure clarity for the reader. The existing table and structure were preserved.

Content Changes

CombineHybrid approaches combine open and endovascular methods, e.g.,such as iliac stenting +with femoral TEAthromboendarterectomy or(TEA), visceral debranching +with thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR), or reconstruction for acute infrarenal aortic occlusion, offering flexibility for complex anatomy [@bisdas2013].[@bisdas2013; @loh2024].

**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 |
