Patient-specific fluid–structure interaction model of bile flow: comparison between 1-way and 2-way algorithms

Gallbladder disease is one of the most spread pathologies in the world. Despite the number of operations dealing with biliary surgery increases, the number of postoperative complications is also high. The aim of this study is to show the influence of the biliary system pathology on bile flow character and to numerically assess the effect of surgical operation (cholecystectomy) on the fluid dynamics in the extrahepatic biliary tree, and also to...
