Background-We sought to identify whether transcutaneous oxygen tension (tcPo(2)) measurements could be used to noninvasively detect lesions in the arterial network supplying blood flow to the hypogastric circulation.Methods and Results-A study was undertaken in vascular patients with suspected (PC, n=43) and not with suspected (NPC, n=34) proximal ischemia. TcPo2 was measured on both buttocks and with a chest reference electrode. Arteriography on the right or left side was positive for stenoses (greater than or equal to75%) or occlusion of one or more of the following arteries: the aorta, the common iliac arteries, or the internal iliac arteries. The arteriography was compared with the resting tcPo(2) values (REST) and with the minimal value (MIN) and maximal change from rest normalized to eventual chest changes (DROP) recorded during or after a treadmill test. REST, MIN, and DROP were, respectively, as follows in positive versus negative arteriograms (mean+/-SD; in mm Hg): 80.2+/-10.9 versus 78.6+/-11.5 (P>0.05), 55.2+/-20.0 versus 69.9+/-15.8 (P
