В литературном обзоре представлены научные материалы по теме компьютерного моделирования гемои гидродинамики кровотока в условиях патологически извитых сонных артерий, а также при атеросклеротическом и аневризматическом поражении сонных артерий. Проводится литературный обзор научных работ, посвященных развитию методики компьютерного моделирования кровотока. После системного анализа научных статей отечественных и зарубежных авторов можно выделить основные параметры, используемые при проведении компьютерного моделирования кровотока при патологической извитости внутренних сонных артерий. Ведущий численный показатель напряжения сдвига стенки (WSS) и скоростные показатели кровотока оцениваются и используются с целью дальнейшего моделирования, прогнозирования и определения показаний к хирургическому лечению, тактики оперирующего хирурга, вероятности рецидивов и частоты развития осложнений.

The literature review presents scientific materials on the computational modelling of hemoand hydrodynamics of blood flow in cases of pathologically tortuosity of carotid arteries, as well as in atherosclerotic and aneurysmal damage of the artery wall. A literature review of different articles about methods of computed modelling of the blood flow is conducted. Following a systematic analysis of scientific articles by Russian and foreign authors, key parameters can be identified for use in computed modelling of blood flow in patients with pathological tortuosity of the internal carotid arteries. The leading numerical indicator of wall shear stress (WSS) and blood flow velocity metrics are assessed and used for further modelling, prognosis and determination of indications for surgical treatment, tactics of the operating surgeon, likelihood of relapses and, frequency of complications.
