Summary: FEVAR surgery requires accurate alignment between the fenestrations and vascular structure, but current prediction techniques may have deviations. This study proposes a method to optimize fenestration positions by simulating vascular deformation during stent graft deployment using the finite element method. The method's robustness was demonstrated in patient-specific cases and other representative anatomies.

Global Sensitivity Analysis for Patient-Specific Aortic Simulations: The Role of Geometry, Boundary Condition and Large Eddy Simulation Modeling Parameters

Huijuan Xu et al.

Summary: Numerical simulations for computational hemodynamics in clinical settings require a combination of many ingredients, including mathematical models, solvers and patient-specific data, with sensitivity of the solutions critical to factors like partial or noisy data knowledge. In aortic flow simulations, geometry and inflow conditions are believed to have a major impact on results, with global sensitivity analysis used to quantify dependence on these factors. The study also shows that the sensitivity of results may vary during different instants of the heartbeat and in different regions of interest.

Patient-specific computational modeling of endovascular aneurysm repair: State of the art and future directions

Stephane Avril et al.

Summary: Endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) has become the preferred intervention for aortic aneurysms and dissections due to its less invasive nature compared to open surgery. However, while in-hospital mortality rates are lower for EVAR, complications in the EVAR group lead to the loss of early benefits after 3 years. Computational modeling offers a personalized way to test stent-graft designs and optimize EVAR interventions, with a focus on developing fast algorithms for real-time solutions and addressing uncertainties related to patient aortic wall degradation.

Patient-Specific Virtual Stent-Graft Deployment for Type B Aortic Dissection: A Pilot Study of the Impact of Stent-Graft Length

Xiaoxin Kan et al.

Summary: Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is a standard treatment for complicated type B aortic dissection. Short stent-graft (SG) length may increase the risk of distal stent-graft-induced new entry (SINE) post-TEVAR. Virtual SG deployment simulations can help predict and reduce stress in the treated aorta, potentially aiding in selecting the most appropriate SG length for individual patients.
