Blood flow through the fusiform aneurysm treated with the Flow Diverter stent – Numerical investigations
The Flow Diverter is one of the methods used in the treatment of a fusiform aneurysm.
While this method is popular in treating anomalies of the cerebral vasculature, it is not commonly used in the treatment of aortic aneurysms.
Their objective was to perform a numerical analysis in addition to visualization of the blood flow in fusiform aneurysm,
The result that all performed CFD analyses indicate that the Flow Diverter stent may be an appropriate alternative in the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms.
