A computational study of influence of changes in blood pressure on growth of abdominal aortic aneurysm

Hypertension is regularly considered a risk factor for higher expansion rate of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and its rupture, while hypotension is mostly ignored. The only investigation between hypotension and AAA is related to investigation of relation between preoperative hypotension due to rupture and high mortality rate. In this work, using finite elements model with implemented growth and remodeling model, we are studying influence of blood pressure changes on abdominal aortic aneurysm growth. Finite element method allows us to analyze 3D axially symmetric and asymmetric aneurysm
