Abstract

A new method for testing the degradation of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) vascular prostheses that combines traction, torsion, flexion and pressure to provide a more realistic simulation of the stresses that prostheses undergo is developed. The tests starts before implantation through mechanical testing, consistent with the standards, followed by spiral computed tomography angiography (CTA) during implantation and finally, through structural observation, biochemical study, mechanical and physico-chemical characterization after implantation of explanted grafts.
