摘要:
By means of Finite Element Method(FEM), the physiological blood flow in coronary bypass graft is simulated. The stenosis in coronary artery and the deformation of graft end to allow the surgical suture with a smaller diameter cornary were taken into consideration in the graft model. The flow pattern, secondary flow and wall shear stress in the vicinity of anastomosis were analyzed. It is shown that a zone of low wall stress and high wall stress gradient exists downstream the toe. The floor opposed to the anastomosis is an area of high wall stress and high wall stress gradient. Both the toe downstream and the anastomosis floor are prone to intimal hyperplasia, so it is concluded that the high wall stress gradient may be relevant to the intimal hyperplasia.
