Transluminal angioplasty of the hypogastric artery for treatment of buttock claudication

S S Morse et al. Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol. 1986.

Abstract

Two patients with incapacitating isolated buttock claudication and bilateral hypogastric artery occlusive disease were treated by balloon dilatation of a single hypogastric artery. Symptoms were eliminated in 1 patient and reduced in the other. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty represents an effective therapeutic approach in this relatively uncommon situation.
