A Patient‐Specific 3D Printed Carotid Artery Model Integrating Vascular Structure, Flow, and Endothelium Responses

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces the first miniaturized, patient‐specific carotid artery model created via 3D printing using GelMA with embedded vascular cells. Combining CFD, PIV, and flow perfusion, the model replicates anatomically dependent hemodynamics and cellular responses.

Plasma‐Polymerized Nanoparticles Presenting Fibrillin‐1 Drive Rapid Re‐Endothelialization of Vascular Grafts

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Commercial vascular grafts are made from ePTFE, a highly hydrophobic, foreign material that fails at a high rate in small‐diameter applications. Plasma polymer nanoparticles (PPN) are a versatile material functionalisation tool, used here to present fibrillin‐1 fragment PF8 on the graft surface.

A case involving a bovine aortic arch contributing to blunt thoracic aortic injury of triple rupture close to the pericardial reflection

Trauma Case Reports
A blunt thoracic aortic injury is a fatal condition that often requires emergency surgery. Although injuries to the aortic isthmus are common in trauma patients, the proximal aortic arch often remains intact.

Sacrificial Biofabrication for Vascularization: Concept, Materials, Technologies, and Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Vasculature is indispensable for tissue viability in regenerative medicine. The sacrificial biofabrication enables precise fabrication of vascular channels by using temporary templates that are subsequently removed. This review defines the concept and delves into sacrificial materials, surrounding materials, fabrication technologies, and biomedical ...

Assessment of the quality of life comparison between open and endovascular aortic arch surgery: a pilot study

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Advancement in endovascular endografts have paved the way to the possibility of performing endovascular aortic arch repair in recent years. This has started to supersede the need for open aortic arch surgery.

Type III aortic arch angulation increases aortic stiffness: Analysis from an ex vivo porcine modelCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Open
Objective: The relationship among increased aortic arch angulation, aortic flow dynamics, and vessel wall stiffness remains unclear. This experimental ex vivo study investigated how increased aortic arch angulation affects aortic stiffness and stent ...

Replacing vascular corrosion casting by in-vivo micro-CT imaging for building 3D cardiovascular models in mice [PDF]

, 2011
The purpose of this study was to investigate if in vivo micro-computed tomography (CT) is a reliable alternative to micro-CT scanning of a vascular corrosion cast. This would allow one to study the early development of cardiovascular diseases.
