Hypothesis-generating for refined AAA rupture models; prospective human validation required before clinical consideration.
Computational modeling demonstrates that relative aneurysm length, degree of asymmetry, and material anisotropy significantly impact peak wall stress, suggesting these factors should be incorporated into AAA rupture risk assessments.
Rodrı́guez et al. (2008) studied this question.
