Often confused with pseudoclaudication, gluteal muscle claudication is a difficult condition to diagnose and treat. We present the case of a 67-year-old man with a history of back and buttock claudication. He had undergone lumbosacral decompression with no relief of buttock claudication. Computed tomography angiography of the abdomen and pelvis showed occlusion of the bilateral internal iliac arteries. Exercise transcutaneous oxygen pressure measurements obtained on referral to our institution revealed a significant decrease. He underwent successful recanalization and stenting of the bilateral hypogastric arteries with complete resolution of his symptoms. We also reviewed the reported data to highlight the trend in the management of patients with this condition.
臀肌间歇性跛行常与假性间歇性跛行相混淆,是一种难以诊断和治疗的疾病。我们报告一例67岁男性患者,有腰背部和臀部间歇性跛行病史。他曾接受过腰骶部减压手术,但臀部间歇性跛行症状并未缓解。腹部和盆腔计算机断层扫描血管造影显示双侧髂内动脉闭塞。转诊至我院后进行的运动经皮氧分压测量结果显示明显下降。他接受了双侧髂内动脉成功的再通和支架置入术,症状完全缓解。我们还回顾了已报道的数据,以突出这种疾病患者的治疗趋势。
