A longitudinal comparison of hemodynamics and intraluminal thrombus deposition in abdominal aortic aneurysms.

چکیده
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is often accompanied by in traluminal thrombus (ILT), which complicates AAA progression and risk of rupture. Patient-specific computational fluid dynamics modeling of 10 small human AAA was performed to investigate relations between hemodynamics and ILT progression. The patients were imaged using magnetic resonance twice in a 2- to 3-yr interval. Wall content data were obtained by a planar T1-weighted fast spin echo black-blood scan, which enabled quantification of thrombus thickness at midaneurysm location during baseline and followup. Computational simulations with patient-specific geometry and boundary conditions were performed to quantify the hemodynamic parameters of time-averaged wall shear stress (TAWSS), oscillatory shear index (OSI), and mean exposure time at baseline. Spatially resolved quantifications of the change in ILT thickness were compared with the different hemodynamic parameters. Regions of low OSI had the strongest correlation with ILT growth and demonstrated a statistically significant correlation coefficient. Prominent regions of high OSI (>0.4) and low TAWSS (<1 dyn/cm(2)) did not appear to coincide with locations of thrombus deposition.

Biochemomechanics of intraluminal thrombus in abdominal aortic aneurysms.
Most computational models of abdominal aortic aneurysms address either the hemodynamics within the lesion or the mechanics of the wall. More recently, however, some models have appropriately begun to account for the evolving mechanics of the wall in response to the changing hemodynamic loads. Collectively, this large body of work has provided tremendous insight into this life-threatening condit...

Analysis of Intraluminal Thrombus Influence on Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Using Fluid Solid Growth Model
The majority of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) harbor intraluminal thrombi (ILTs). These thrombi have a biochemomechanically active role in aneurysm evolution [1]. Therefore, it is important to consider their influence when modeling aneurysm growth. A computational model of multi-layered ILT presented in Virag et al. [2] showed diverse effects that ILT has on the AAA enlargement. However, in...
