Coupled Hemodynamics and Oxygen Diffusion in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm: A Computational Sensitivity Study.

The presence of an ILT significantly impairs oxygen transport from the lumen to the wall. This study confirms that consideration of ILT size and anatomy may be important in considering the severity of a AAA, however, other parameters can also affect thrombus-mediated oxygen delivery within the aneurysmal wall.
