Abstract

Intracranial aneurysms are localized dilatations of the cerebral arteries that carry a risk of rupture and subsequent subarachnoid hemorrhage, a life-threatening condition. Middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms are a common type of intracranial aneurysm, and endovascular treatment using coils or flow diverters is a common intervention approach. Understanding the hemodynamics, or blood flow patterns, within MCA aneurysms and how they are affected by endovascular treatment is crucial for improving patient outcomes. This numerical study investigates the hemodynamics of blood flow within MCA aneurysms before and after endovascular treatment. Patient-specific geometric models of MCA aneurysms were reconstructed from medical imaging data. Simulations using computational fluid dynamics were conducted to examine flow characteristics, wall shear stress, and additional hemodynamic factors within the aneurysms. The study assessed and contrasted the impact of coil embolization and flow diverter placement on the hemodynamics inside the aneurysms. The findings offer a deeper understanding of the intricate flow dynamics within MCA aneurysms and illustrate the ways in which endovascular treatments can modify these dynamics.
