Suppression of Wall Shear Stress inside Intracranial Aneurysms by Simple Stents
The effect of a simple bare-metal stent on suppression of wall shear stress inside a spherical intracranial aneurysm model was experimentally investigated by two dimensional particle image velocimetry in vitro. The flow model simulated an intracranial aneurysm induced both at the side wall and at the apex of bifurcation between the anterior cerebral artery and the anterior communicating artery. Wall shear stress was investigated using both stented and non-stented models to assess the simple bare metal stent characteristics. The flow behavior inside the stented aneurysm sac was unusual and wall shear stress was much smaller inside the aneurysm sac. For both models, the maximum and the temporal and spatial averaged wall shear stress in the stented model is reduced by at least 50 % from those in the non-stented model. Stent placement effectively suppresses the temporal and spatial variations, and the magnitude of wall shear stress. Consequently, there is an effective possibility that would retard the progress of cerebral aneurysms by even simple stent.
