Hemodynamic conditions in a failing peripheral artery bypass graft
Journal of Vascular Surgery, 05/11/2012
McGah PM et al. – Transitional and chaotic flow occurs at the site of the revision, inducing a complex pattern of wall shear as computed with the hemodynamic simulations. This supports the hypothesis that the hemodynamic stresses in the revised segment, produced by the coupling of vessel geometry and chaotic flow, led to the intimal hyperplasia and restenosis of the graft.
