Abstract

Objectives: We aimed to elucidate whether lower limb extra-fascial compartment and muscle areas affect the calf muscle pumping action on lower limbs.

Method: This study included 90 patients (180 limbs) who underwent preoperative air plethysmography (APG) and preoperative non-contrast computed tomography (CT) of the lower limbs for diagnosis of unilateral or bilateral primary varicose veins. A correlation between cross-sectional CT images and preoperative APG was confirmed. Cross-sectional CT was used to measure the extra-fascial compartment and muscle areas of the calf. The lower limbs were divided into two groups: those that were normal and those with primary varicose veins.

Results: The extra-fascial compartment area was significantly correlated with the ejection fraction in normal (r = 0.388, n = 53, p = 0.004) and varicose limbs (r = 0.232, n = 91, p = 0.027).

Conclusions: In normal and varicose limbs, evaluation of ejection fraction, an indicator of muscle pumping, requires consideration of the extra-fascial compartment area.

小腿筋膜外腔室面积影响小腿肌肉泵送动作:空气体积脉搏波和计算机断层扫描研究。

目的:我们旨在阐明下肢筋膜外腔室和肌肉区域是否影响小腿肌肉的泵送作用。方法:本研究纳入90例(180条肢体)患者，术前均行下肢空气体积脉搏波(APG)和非对比计算机断层扫描(CT)诊断单侧或双侧原发性静脉曲张。证实了横断CT图像与术前APG的相关性。横断CT测量筋膜外腔室和小腿肌肉面积。下肢分为两组:正常组和原发性静脉曲张组。结果:筋膜外腔室面积与正常下肢(r = 0.388, n = 53, p = 0.004)和静脉曲张下肢(r = 0.232, n = 91, p = 0.027)的射血分数有显著相关。结论:在正常和静脉曲张的肢体中，评估射血分数(肌肉泵送的指标)需要考虑筋膜外腔室面积。
