The femoropopliteal artery (FPA) is the main artery in the lower limb. It supplies blood to the
leg muscles and undergoes complex deformations during limb flexion. Atherosclerotic …

Abstract Treatment of acute ischemic stroke has been recently improved with the
introduction of endovascular mechanical thrombectomy, a minimally invasive procedure …

In-stent restenosis (ISR) represents a major drawback of stented superficial femoral arteries
(SFAs). Motivated by the high incidence and limited knowledge of ISR onset and …

Abstract Background Superficial femoral arteries (SFAs) treated with self-expanding stents
are widely affected by in-stent restenosis (ISR), especially in case of long lesions and …

Peripheral arterial disease differentially affects the superficial femoral (SFA) and the
popliteal (PA) arteries, but their morphometric, structural, mechanical, and physiologic …

In-stent restenosis (ISR) is the major drawback of superficial femoral artery (SFA) stenting.
Abnormal hemodynamics after stent implantation seems to promote the development of ISR …

This article presents a broad overview of the fluid mechanics of the human cardiovascular
system. Beginning in the heart, we travel through the main features of our circulation to …

Endovascular treatment of the femoro-popliteal artery has recently become a valuable
therapeutic option for popliteal arterial aneurysms. However, its efficacy remains …

Reduced blood flow to the lower extremities causes peripheral arterial disease (PAD), which
is caused by atherosclerotic plaque in the arterial wall. If this impairment is not treated, it will …

Tissue biomanufacturing aims to produce lab-grown stem cell grafts and biomimetic drug
testing platforms but remains limited in its ability to recapitulate native tissue mechanics. The …
