| Summary: | Abstract The formation and progress of cerebral aneurysm is highly associated with hemodynamic factors and blood flow feature. In this study, comprehensive efforts are done to investigate the blood hemodynamic effects on the creation and growth of the Internal Carotid Artery. The computational fluid dynamic method is used for the visualization of the bloodstream inside the aneurysm. Transitional, non-Newtonian and incompressible conditions are considered for solving the Navier–Stokes equation to achieve the high-risk region on the aneurysm wall. OSI and WSS of the aneurysm wall are compared within different blood flow stages. The effects of blood viscosity and coiling treatment on these factors are presented in this work. Our study shows that in male patients (HCT = 0.45), changing the porosity of coiling from 0.89 with 0.79 would decreases maximum OSI up to 75% (in maximum acceleration). However, this effect is limited to about 45% for female patients (HCT = 0.35).
