The possibilities of real-time sonography in the diagnostics of peripheral pulsating resistances. Our experiences of some cases.
Real-time sonography was performed in 5 patients in 7 cases for peripheral pulsating resistances. The change developed in the inguinal fold in one case after arteriography and in 3 patients following a vascular operation. In an additional case, a pulsating mass located in the neck proved to be the kinking of the subclavian artery. After a brief literary review of the ultrasound-diagnostics of the vessels, the authors have found sonography a suitable means for judging the relationship between the vessel or graft and the pseudoaneurysm, the size of the communication and eventual thrombus formation.
