“…During the first three minutes, ABI in left lower limb falls, a hemodynamic result very different from that observed in the right lower disease (PAOD), and its normal value is greater than 0.9. The occurrence of a normal ABI value at rest does not rule out PAOD in cyclists 12,29,45 ; therefore, this test should be performed at submaximal or maximal effort to induce the appearance of the complaints that result from cycling 3,30,65 . For cyclists, the effort test is more reliable when performed in a cycle ergometer or cycle simulator (absolute distance, or Strandness test in French) than when the treadmill test is used, because the ergometer and simulators reproduce the γ of twenty-five cyclists included in the study, there were twenty-seven cases, as two cyclists (1 man and 1 woman) were studied at two different time points and in contralateral limb to the one affected before: 15• l , ten men and five women -8• r , two men and six women, and 4• l,r , three men and one woman.…”

“…First, symptoms appear at submaximal effort 15 , then at moderate effort and medium distance, and may later be reported to be felt during walks 13,48,54,59. Among cyclists diagnosed with endofibrosis or thrombosis of the external iliac artery, annual training ranges from 5,000 km to 33,000 km 3,5,8,9,15,17,19,24,44, and symptoms, according to case reports, may appear after distances reach 50,000 km to 380,000 km 9,17,32,44,48. External iliac artery dysfunction in cyclists is not often associated with PAOD characteristics, such as history of thromboembolic disease, abnormal cholesterol levels 30,45 and diabetes…”

Lower limb vascular dysfunction in cyclists

Sports-related vascular insufficiency affecting the lower limbs is uncommon, and early signs and symptoms can be confused with musculoskeletal injuries. This is also the case among professional cyclists, who are always at the threshold between endurance and excess training. The aim of this review was to analyze the occurrence of vascular disorders in the lower limbs of cyclists and to discuss possible etiologies. Eighty-five texts, including papers and books, published from 1950 to 2012, were used. According to the literature reviewed, some cyclists receive a late diagnosis of vascular dysfunction due to a lack of familiarity of the medical team with this type of dysfunction. Data revealed that a reduced blood flow in the external iliac artery, especially on the left, is much more common than in the femoral and popliteal arteries, and that vascular impairment is responsible for the occurrence of early fatigue and reduced performance in cycling.Keywords: cycling; peripheral arteriopathy; blood flow; stenosis. ResumoO desenvolvimento de insuficiência vascular em membros inferiores relacionada à prática esportiva é incomum e no início do surgimento dos sinais e sintomas frequentemente pode ser confundida com lesão musculoesquelética, a exemplo de casos relatados em ciclistas profissionais, por estarem sempre no limiar entre o treinamento em nível máximo e o excesso de treinamento. O objetivo desta revisão de literatura foi analisar a ocorrência de disfunções vasculares em membros inferiores em ciclistas e as possíveis etiologias. Oitenta e cinco textos, entre artigos e livros publicados de 1950 a 2012 foram utilizados. Segundo a literatura, alguns ciclistas têm o diagnóstico de disfunção vascular realizado tardiamente devido à falta da familiaridade da equipe médica com esta modalidade de disfunção. Os resultados da pesquisa revelaram que a redução do fluxo sanguíneo na artéria ilíaca externa, em especial a esquerda, é bem mais comum que a da artéria femoral e poplítea, e que o comprometimento vascular é responsável pela ocorrência de fadiga precoce e redução do desempenho no ciclismo.Palavras-chave: ciclismo; arteriopatia periférica; fluxo sanguíneo; estenose.

“…35 Histologický obraz IAE je zcela odlišný od aterosklerotických změn, stejně i od ostatních tepenných lézí, jako jsou fi bromuskulární dysplazie, cystické degenerace adventicie. 34,35 V 90 % IAE vzniká na levostranné pánevní tepně v délce 2-6 cm. Asi v 15 % případů se vyskytuje oboustranné postižení zevní pánevní tepny.…”

Cévní příčiny námahových bolestí dolních končetin u sportovců jsou relativně vzácné. Mohou být ale příčinou opakovaných bolestivých stavů při zátěži dolních končetin. Mezi důležité cévní patologie, které je třeba vzít v úvahu, patří entrapment syndrom popliteální tepny (PAES), endofi bróza ilické arterie (IAE), aneurysma popliteální tepny (PAA), cystická degenerace adventicie popliteální tepny. Je důležité odlišit tyto vaskulární příčiny od chronických muskuloskeletálních syndromů. Cévní patologie se projevují jak klidovými bolestmi, tak intermitentní klaudikací. Pro diagnostiku jsou zásadní zobrazovací techniky, které jsou určující pro vedení léčby. Diagnostické postupy zahrnují digitální subtrakční angiografi i (DSA) nebo neinvazivní zobrazení, jako je duplexní sonografi e (DUS), angiografi e pomocí výpočetní tomografi e (CTA) nebo angiografi e magnetickou rezonancí (MRA) v provokativních pozicích. Opožděná diagnóza může vést k závažným komplikacím, včetně akutní ischemie končetin (ALI). Léčba těchto vaskulárních abnormalit obvykle zahrnuje chirurgickou korekci. Cílem článku je poskytnout přehled o těchto cévních příčinách námahových bolestí dolních končetin a edukovat lékaře, aby se tak vyhnuli nesprávné diagnóze kvůli včasnému zahájení léčby.
