Muscle metabolism was measured in 7 patients with arterial occlusive disease and symptoms of intermittent claudication both before and after percutaneous vascular neurolysis by means of dynamic 31P-MR spectroscopy. Phosphorus spectra of the involved calf muscles were determined before, during and after defined treadmill exercise. In addition to pH values the phosphocreatine content was measured during activity and recovery phases. There was close correlation in these patients between the increase in claudication distance and more rapid regeneration of phosphocreatine following neurolysis. However, none of the patients achieved normal values of phosphate metabolism. By means of the non-invasive 31P-MR spectroscopy it was possible for the first time to demonstrate the biochemical changes associated with neurolytic lumbar sympathetic blockade.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007383 Intermittent Claudication A symptom complex characterized by pain and weakness in SKELETAL MUSCLE group associated with exercise, such as leg pain and weakness brought on by walking. Such muscle limpness disappears after a brief rest and is often relates to arterial STENOSIS; muscle ISCHEMIA; and accumulation of LACTATE. Claudication, Intermittent
D007866 Leg The inferior part of the lower extremity between the KNEE and the ANKLE. Legs
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D009132 Muscles Contractile tissue that produces movement in animals. Muscle Tissue,Muscle,Muscle Tissues,Tissue, Muscle,Tissues, Muscle
D009682 Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Spectroscopic method of measuring the magnetic moment of elementary particles such as atomic nuclei, protons or electrons.
