Hostile Hemodynamics in Distal Stent Graft-Induced New Entry Prior to Aortic Rupture: A Comparison of Transient versus Steady-State CFD Simulations.

 Steady-flow CFD simulations feasible at clinical time scales prior to aortic rupture reveal a hostile hemodynamic environment at the dSINE rupture site in agreement with lengthy transient simulations. Consequently, our developed approach may be of value in treatment planning where a fast assessment of the local hemodynamic environment is essential.
