| Popis: | ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to demonstrate whether there is postoperative improvement in blood flow in the affected limb after surgical decompression in popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES). For this purpose, the simple method of measuring Doppler ankle pressure with and without provocation was used preoperatively and postoperatively.Patients and methodsDoppler ankle pressure was measured preoperatively and postoperatively in neutral position (n = 32) and with provocation (forced plantar flexion of the foot; n = 32) in 32 limbs in 23 patients with PAES (19 men, 4 women; average age, 38.24 ± 12.25 years) operated on between January 1, 1986, and December 31, 2000. The reference method was angiography with provocation in 18 patients and duplex ultrasound scanning in 14 patients.ResultsPatients were assigned to one of two groups (A and B) on the basis of ankle-brachial index (ABI) at rest. Group A (mean age, 38.19 ± 11.60 years) included all limbs (n = 24) with ABI >0.9 preoperatively, and group B (mean age, 42.39 ± 14.38 years) comprised all limbs (n = 8) with ABI |
