Abstract
The hemodynamic parameters in arteries are difficult to measure non-invasively, and the analysis and prediction of hemodynamic parameters based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become one of the important research hotspots in biomechanics. This article establishes 15 idealized left coronary artery bifurcation models with concomitant stenosis and aneurysm lesions, and uses CFD method to numerically simulate them, exploring the effects of left anterior descending branch (LAD) stenosis rate and curvature radius on the hemodynamics inside the aneurysm. This study compared models with different stenosis rates and curvature radii and found that as the stenosis rate increased, the oscillatory shear index (OSI) and relative residence time (RRT) showed a trend of increase; In addition, the decrease in curvature radius led to an increase in the degree of vascular curvature and an increased risk of vascular aneurysm rupture. Among them, when the stenosis rate was less than 60%, the impact of stenosis rate on aneurysm rupture was greater, and when the stenosis rate was greater than 60%, the impact of curvature radius was more significant. Based on the research results of this article, it can be concluded that by comprehensively considering the effects of stenosis rate and curvature radius on hemodynamic parameters, the risk of aneurysm rupture can be analyzed and predicted. This article uses CFD methods to deeply explore the effects of stenosis rate and curvature radius on the hemodynamics of aneurysms, providing new theoretical basis and prediction methods for the assessment of aneurysm rupture risk, which has important academic value and practical guidance significance.
