The role of porosity and 3D cross-stent configuration of multiple overlapping uncovered stents in the management of complex aortic aneurysms – Insights from haemodynamics

Background: Multiple overlapping uncovered stents (MOUS) have been introduced to manage complex aortic aneurysms with vital branches involvement. It has been shown that the porosity is a key determinant of the treatment outcome. However, the role of 3D cross-stent configuration remains unclear. Meth...
