Focusing the capacity of the circle of Willis(CoW)and the cerebral hemodynamic changes before and after clamping internal carotid artery(ICA)during carotid endarterectomy(CEA)
a 3D computational model was developed combining patient-specific CT images with CAD software. A series of different axisymmetric stenosis were artificially inserted in right internal carotid artery(RICA). Non-Newtonian blood flow in CoW was simulated under steady flow condition by ANSYS-CFX. The results show that cerebral blood flow gets redistributed as the degree of stenosis is greater than 50%. Collateral flow in anterior communicating artery(ACoA)is much more important than that in posterior communicating artery(PCoA). As cerebral blood flow(CBF)is proportional to blood pressure
raising blood pressure facilitates improving the cerebral blood supply efficiently during the CEA operation. However
while ACoA missing
the blood supply can not be simply maintained by raising blood pressure
a shunt is necessary.
