Popis: | Delayed hyperaemia in the anterior tibial muscle following exercise of this muscle combined with ischaemia of the leg is considered pathognomonic of obliterative disease of the femoral artery. The phenomenon was studied by plethysmography and by the 133Xenon clearance technique. Slow repressurization in the distal arterial tree after cessation of the ischaemia was considered to be of prime importance, but preferential supply of blood to proximal and dependent muscles also contributed. |
