摘要
Currently, the clinical classification of the severity of renal artery stenosis (RAS) solely depends on the degree of stenosis. In addition, when the stenosis degree is between 50% and 70%, the clinical strategy is decided based on whether the RAS is hemodynamically significant. In this study, the influence of RAS morphological parameters on hemodynamics was numerically analyzed to provide a theoretical basis for clinical treatment.Idealized RAS models were established to investigate the hemodynamic effects of the stenosis length, asymmetric stenosis, and direction of the opening of the renal artery.The longer the stenosis length, the greater is the ratio of the low time-averaged wall shear stress (WSS) and high oscillatory shear index (OSI) area distal stenosis (when the stenosis area is the same). In addition, asymmetric stenosis leads to a significant increase in the ratio of the renal artery peak systolic velocity (R-PSV) and the abdominal aorta peak systolic velocity (A-PSV) when the stenosis area is 60-70%. Furthermore, the fraction flow reserve (FFR) of the RAS model with 12 mm stenosis length, upward eccentricity and upward direction of renal artery opening was approximately equal to the cumulative value of the influence of different stenosis morphologies on FFR.An assessment of the severity of RAS should consider the stenosis area and other morphological parameters, including the length and asymmetry of RAS as well as the direction of the opening of renal artery, particularly when the stenosis degree of RAS is between 50% and 70%.
