Abstract: Introduction: Some researchers have encountered difficulties in obtaining data related to surgical planning for aortic aneurysm. Currently, the measurements used in planning endovascular treatment are not fully available in the patient's medical record, and the computed tomography angiography (CTA) reports do not include a description of the parameters used in surgical planning. Aim: The general aim is to develop a standardized and structured digital document for recording the anatomical parameters of the aneurysm necessary for the evaluation and treatment of aortic aneurysms (AA), obtained from the preoperative CTA imaging study, to be included in the electronic health record. In addition, this initiative seeks to improve the recording of information about aortic aneurysm parameters required for assessment, follow-up, and therapeutic planning, to be attached to the patient’s medical record. Methodology: The development was carried out in two stages: initially, a literature review was conducted to support and characterize the need for the proposal. Subsequently, in collaboration with a vascular surgeon from the institution and a specialized illustrator, digital models representing the anatomy of the four main types of aortic aneurysms were created. The illustrations, originally hand-drawn, were processed using artificial intelligence to enhance their visual quality. In addition, the vascular parameters essential for surgical planning were defined and standardized, based on measurements obtained from computed tomography angiography and specialized software, for subsequent inclusion in the document. Results: Four documents were created with illustrations of descending thoracic, abdominal, aorto-iliac, and thoracoabdominal aneurysms, containing editable fields for entering dimensions and vascular characteristics according to the patient’s preoperative CTA, the type of endoprosthesis required, as well as a red marker to indicate the exact location of the dilation. Conclusion: With structured and organized documentation included in the patient’s medical record, it is expected that access to data—whether for surgical planning, auditing, or as a resource for teaching, research, and development—will become easier and more transparent.
