Question 1 of 28👑 VIP

A 67-year-old male presents with progressive left arm fatigue during exertion. Duplex scanning of the left subclavian artery reveals a peak systolic velocity of 340 cm/s with post-stenotic turbulence. The vertebral arteries are evaluated, and you observe that during left arm exercise the left vertebral artery waveform completely reverses direction. What is the most likely diagnosis, and what hemodynamic mechanism explains the vertebral waveform finding?
