Application of 3D printing to create an in vitro aneurysm rupture model
Currently available benchtop (in vitro) aneurysm models are inadequate for testing the efficacy of endovascular device treatments. Specifically, current models do not represent the mechanical instability of giant aneurysms (defined as aneurysms with 25 mm in height or width) and do not predictably rupture under simulated physiological conditions. Hence, in vitro aneurysm models with biomechanically relevant material properties and a predictable rupture timeframe are needed to accurately assess the efficacy of new medical device treatment options. Understanding the material properties of an aneurysm (e.g., shear and compression modulus) as it approaches rupture is a crucial step toward creating a pathologically relevant and sophisticated in vitro aneurysm rupture model. We investigated the change in material properties of a blood vessel, via enzymatic treatment, to simulate the degradation of an aneurysm wall and used this information to create a sophisticated aneurysm rupture model using the latest in additive manufacturing technologies (3D printing) with tissue-like materials. Mechanical properties (shear and compression modulus) of swine carotid vessels were evaluated before and after incubation with collagenase D enzyme (30 min at 37°C) to simulate the effect of biochemical activity on aneurysm wall approaching rupture compared to control vessels (untreated). Mechanical strength of a soft and flexible 3D-printed material (VCA-A30: 30 shore A hardness) was tested for comparison to these arterial vessels. This material was then used to create spherical shaped, giant-sized (25-mm diameter) aneurysm phantoms and were run under neurovascular pressures (120/80 ± 5 mmHg), beats per minute (BPM = 70) and flows representing the middle cerebral artery [MCA: 142.67 (±20.13) mL/min] using a blood analog [3.6 (±0.4) cP viscosity] with non-Newtonian shear-thinning properties. The shear modulus of swine carotid vessel before treatment was 12.2 (±2.7) KPa and compression modulus was 663.5 (±111.6) KPa. After enzymatic treatment by collagenase D, shear modulus of animal tissues reduced by 33% (p-value = .039) while compression modulus remained statistically unchanged (p-value = .615). Control group (untreated vessels) showed minimal reduction (13%, p-value = .226) in shear modulus and 78% increase (p-value = .034) in compression modulus. The shear modulus of the 3D-printed material was 228.59 (±24.82) KPa while its compression modulus was 668.90 (±13.16) KPa.

Manuscripts are published in one of six formats:
• original research reports
• short research and development reports
• scientific reviews
• current concepts articles
• special reports
• editorials
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research – Part B: Applied Biomaterials is an official journal of the Society for Biomaterials, Japanese Society for Biomaterials, the Australasian Society for Biomaterials, and the Korean Society for Biomaterials. Manuscripts from all countries are invited but must be in English. Authors are not required to be members of the affiliated Societies, but members of these societies are encouraged to submit their work to the journal for consideration.
