A Finite Element CFD Simulation for Predicting Patient-Specific Hemodynamics of an Aortic Coarctation
This paper presents a numerical simulation of the flow characteristics through a patient-specific model of an aortic coarctation. The purpose of the study was to predict the pressure gradient at rest and at exercise conditions. The commercial package ADINA was used to numerically solve the governing equations using finite-elements methods. The model was based on the patient's MR angiography dat...
متن کاملPatient-specific finite element analysis of ascending aorta aneurysms.
Catastrophic ascending aorta aneurysm (AsAA) dissection and rupture can be prevented by elective surgical repair, but identifying individuals at risk remains a challenge. Typically the decision to operate is based primarily on the overall aneurysm size, which may not be a reliable indicator of risk. In this study, AsAA inflation and rupture was simulated in 27 patient-specific finite element mo...
متن کاملComparative finite element model analysis of ascending aortic flow in bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valve.
In bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease, the role of genetic and hemodynamic factors influencing ascending aortic pathology is controversial. To test the effect of BAV geometry on ascending aortic flow, a finite element analysis was undertaken. A surface model of aortic root and ascending aorta was obtained from magnetic resonance images of patients with BAV and tricuspid aortic valve using segm...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Finite Element Modeling of Dilated Human Ascending Aorta
A dilated ascending aorta or aortic root is susceptible to fatal aortic dissection or rupture. This risk may be attributed to increased circumferential stresses due to an increase in aortic lumen diameter. However, the effect of complex geometry on wall stresses in the dilated ascending aorta is not well understood. In this study, we combined pre-operative MRI data and measured mechanical prope...
متن کاملAortic Pseudo aneurysm 3 Years after Interposition Tube Graft for Acute Dissection of Ascending Aorta
Introduction: Patients with primary acute aortic dissection are at higher risk of complications, including increasing aortic aneurysm diameter, aortic rupture, aortic pseudo aneurysm, and recurrent aortic dissection. Case presentation We presented the case of a recurrent pseudo aneurysm and rupture of the aorta in the distal a...
