V. Associated Conditions

VI. Symptoms

  1. Presentations
    1. Classic Claudication: 10% of cases
    2. Atypical Leg Pain: 50% of cases
    3. Asymptomatic: 40% of cases
  2. Classic Claudication
    1. Cramp-like leg Muscle pain or Fatigue with Exercise, better with rest
      1. Calf pain typical (pain may occur in thigh, buttock)
    2. Pain worse with exertion
    3. Pain relieved within 10 minutes rest
    4. Pain relieved with rest and dependent position
  3. Critical Limb Ischemia (1% of presentations)
    1. Tissue loss or gangrene

    3. Pain improves with hanging leg over the side of the bed (with dependent redness or rubor)
    4. Chronic (>2 weeks) ischemic rest pain, often occurring soon after falling asleep
      1. Chronicity allows for collateral vessel development and preserved limb viability despite severe symptoms
  4. Acute Limb Ischemia (see management below)
    1. Cold, painful, pale limb with diminished or absent pulses
    2. Motor weakness
    3. Decreased Sensation
    4. Abrupt onset allows for no collateral circulation, and a short window of viable tissue for revascularization

    1. Exertional pain: 70% arterial pain
    2. Nocturnal pain: 70 to 90% arterial stenosis

Ontology: Leriche Syndrome (C0023370)

Definition (NCI) An atherosclerotic disorder of the peripheral vascular system affecting mostly males in their later decades. It is caused by thrombotic occlusion of the abdominal aorta just above the level of the bifurcation. Clinical signs include impotence, intermittent claudication, diminished femoral pulses and cold, pallid lower extremities. Prognosis is favorable with surgical or endovascular intervention.
Definition (MSH) A condition caused by occlusion of terminal aorta, the primary branches of the ABDOMINAL AORTA, as in aortoiliac obstruction. Leriche syndrome usually occurs in males and is characterized by IMPOTENCE, absence of a pulse in the femoral arteries, weakness and numbness in the lower back, buttocks, hips, and lower limbs.
