Abstract

Abrupt narrowing of the carotid artery known as atherosclerosis is a common cardiovascular disease, increasing the risk of stroke which is one of the leading causes of death. Helicity in the arterial passage is found to be one of the effective ways to minimize plaque formation. Using Autodesk Meshmixer, an open-source software, the stenosed portion of the diseased artery is removed to obtain what is referred to in this study as the base case. The helicity and hemodynamic characteristics of a patient-specific geometry with and without stent in repaired instance are examined. The current study found that when novel stent design is placed there is a reduction in recirculation zone size and Relative Residence Time (RRT), but also resulted in increased pressure drop across the artery.
