WaveGraft –A novel endovascular device concept for restoring the natural arterial cushioning effect
(Atlantis Press, 2020-12)
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The cushioning effect of large, healthy arteries reduces pulsatile afterload to the heart, reduces pulsatility in the microvasculature of target organs, and promotes coronary/cerebral perfusion.(1) ...
An experimental evaluation of the device/arterial wall compliance mismatch for four stent-graft devices and a Multi-layer Flow Modulator (MFM) device for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms
(Elsevier Ltd., 2015)
Purpose:
To experimentally investigate the arterial wall/device compliance mismatch of four stent-graft devices and a multi-layer flow modulator within the supra- and infra-renal locations for the treatment of Abdominal ...
Long-term outcomes of open repair of inflammatory and atherosclerotic abdominal aortic aneurysms
(Journal of Surgery, 2016-01)
Background:
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are a common vascular disease mostly affecting those over the age of 65 years. Open surgical repair (OSR) is considered the gold standard for the treatment of AAA, however ...
Hemodynamic variations due to spiral blood flow through four patient-specific bifurcated stent graft configurations for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2012-10)
Endovascular repair is now a recognised procedure for treating abdominal aortic aneurysms. However,
post-operative complications such as stent graft migration and thrombus may still occur. To assess these
complications ...
