Three-dimensional steady and pulsatile flows in an end-to-side anastomosis were investigated using a finite difference method in order to understand the flow dynamics in the preferential development of distal anastomotic intimal hyperplasia or thrombosis. Steady flow results revealed that a double helical vortex was formed in the host artery and flow recirculations near toe find heel regions were restricted due to the secondary flow. Oscillating wall shear stress with significant secondary flow might be flow dynamic reason of developing intimal hyperplasia or thrombosis near the anastomotic region.
