Biomechanical Aspects of Closing Approaches in Postcarotid Endarterectomy

Table 1

Cases studied.

Case#1	A healthy carotid bifurcation: a time-dependent simulation of the coupled domains
Case#2	A narrowed postoperation carotid bifurcation with a suture: a time-dependent simulation of the coupled domains
Case#3	A widened carotid bifurcation with a high flexibility patch: a time-dependent simulation of the coupled domains
Case#4	A widened carotid bifurcation with a medium flexibility patch: a time-dependent simulation of the coupled domains
Case#5	A widened carotid bifurcation with a low flexibility patch: a time-dependent simulation of the coupled domains
