May inform stent-graft design to address dominant pressure forces at bifurcations; leaves open clinical translation and durability impact.
Computational fluid dynamics demonstrates that pressure-related forces dominate over flow-related forces in bifurcated aortic stent-grafts, with the highest forces at the bifurcation.
Howell et al. (2007) studied this question.
