AB A  57-year-old  left-handed  man  smoker  with  hypertension  and  coronary  artery  disease  presented  to  the  clinic  with  complaints  of  left  arm  pain.  He  worked  predominantly  at  a  desk  job  but  did  multiple  tasks  around  the  house  that  required  vigorous  use  of  the  upper  extremity  and  hand.  He  stated  that  when  he  used  his  left  hand  for  even  short  periods  of  time,  he  developed  cramping  and  fatigue  in  his  hand  and  forearm.  If  he  performed  a  significant  amount  of  work  with  his  left  arm  he  became  dizzy  and  light-headed.  He  denied  any  focal  neurologic  deficits  or  loss  of  consciousness.
