Improvement on geometry and hemodynamics of coronary artery bypass grafting : numerical and experimental studies

Impaired local hemodynamics associated with unfavorable anastomotic geometry has been implicated in the initiation and progression of intimal hyperplasia and atherosclerosis, the two vascular diseases for failing bypass anastomoses. Focused on the distal coronary anastomosis, this thesis seeks to de...
