RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: It is accepted that surgically placed bifurcated aortic grafts should be shaped as a short proximal main tube with two long distal limbs. We aim to investigate the hemodynamic effect of different main body lengths in bifurcated aortic grafts using 3D computer models. METHODS: Five different idealized models are generated to represent an aorto-bifemoral graft. Distance from renal to femoral arteries is set at 25cm and distance between the femoral arteries is set at 14cm. Values of the main body length taken into account to build the idealized models are 3cm, 6cm, 9cm, 12cm and 15cm. Blood flow resistance, Time Average Wall Shear Stress (TAWSS), Oscillatory Shear Index (OSI) and Relative Residence Time (RRT) are estimated using the constructed 3D models. RESULTS: The total resistance decreased monotonically by as far as 40% as the main body length increased. Appropriate hemodynamic simulations show a maximum TAWSS decrease and a corresponding maximum OSI and RRT increase with elongated main body configurations, indicating a hemodynamic benefit of the "Short" main body configuration. Nevertheless, the differences in these later variables are small, affecting a limited portion of the geometries. CONCLUSION: A long main body of a bifurcated aortic graft results in significantly reduced total resistance in idealized models designed to represent an aorto-bifemoral surgical graft, while the differences observed in TAWSS, OSI and RRT between models are small.
