Aim of the study is to test the feasibility of transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO2) recording in the diagnosis of iliac kinking in 20 patients with suspected of endofibrosisoriliackinking and 40 asymptomatic control heathy subjects
Patients suspected of PES and healthy controls after detailled explanation of the protocol will have a recording of tcpO2 on both calves and will perform a series of thigh flexion in the standing position.
