Hemodynamic and mechanical interpretation of the clinical performance of abdominal aortic endografts: principles and considerations

What are the factors predisposing to migration of endografts after EVAR? How are the stresses, pressure and forces distributed postiperatively? Can the geometric parameters predict future adverse effects? How are mechanical, hemodynamic and geometrical changes interconnected postinterventionally? This presentation introduces some basic hemodynamic pronciples and terminology as a means to comprehend the phenomena taking place after endograft implantation.
