(1) After surgical reconstruction in patients with isolated arterial occlusions, prolongation of walking distance depends on the increase in blood flow, i.e. the improvement of muscular working capacity is due to a "flow mechanism". (2) After medical therapy, the prolongation of walking distance does not depend on the response of total blood flow. This is most probably attributable to a shift of blood to muscle capillaries, i.e. the improvement of muscular working performance is due to a "distribution mechanism". (3) Combined therapeutic use of both mechanisms may ensure optimal results in the treatment of intermittent claudication.
