The research concerns the development of geometric variants of patches sewn into the common carotid artery during surgery of the atherosclerotic plaques removal. Based on analytical methods, thegeometry of the patch described by the polynomial function has been developed. The simulations of blood flow in the arteries with the sewn patch were performed. The study included the influence of the patient’s diameter and the width of the chosen patch on blood flow disorders. The result of the research is the algorithm of selecting the geometry of the arterial patch to the individual geometrical featuresof the patient’s artery. The studies result will comprise the development of software, which, upon introduction of input data related to arterial geometry, patch length and patient’s blood parameters (affecting the fluid density and viscosity), shall generate an accurate contour of the patch of width causing no flow disorders.
