Patient-specific simulation of stent-graft deployment within an abdominal aortic aneurysm
Résumé
In this study, finite element analysis is used to simulate the surgical deployment procedure of a bifurcated stent-graft on a real patient's arterial geometry. The stent-graft is modeled using realistic constitutive properties for both the stent and most importantly for the graft. The arterial geometry is obtained from pre-operative imaging exam. The obtained results are in good agreement with the post-operative imaging data. As the whole computational time was reduced to less than 2 hours, this study constitutes an essential step towards predictive planning simulations of aneurysmal endovascular surgery
