Abstract
Doppler is conducted in POTS patients with family history of MALS and persistent gastric symptoms. Peak systolic velocity (PSV), End Diastolic velocity (EDV) is calculated in all the patients. PSV greater than 200 cm/s, EDV greater than 55 cm/s are suggestive of celiac artery stenosis associated with MALS. Results: Out of 93 patients, 95% patients are Females (n = 88, age 28.88 ± 9.36), 5% patients are Males (n = 5, age 25.83 ± 6.19). PSV (cm/sec) 223.84 ± 109.52, EDV (cm/sec) 71.07 ± 54.46, PSV (neutral) 179.77 ± 83.01, PSV Expiration 218.58 ± 109.79. PSV (cm/sec) N 200 in 51 patients (55%), EDV (cm/sec) N55 in 50 patients (54%), PSV Expiration (cm/sec) N 200 in 52 patients (56%). PSV (Cm/sec) N300 in 18 Patients. Conclusion: Our research study demonstrated that higher percentages of POTS patients (N50%) are found to have MALS. MALS was found to be more common in females POTS Patients. There appears to be tremendous improvement in symptoms of two POTS patients after surgery for MALS.
