What Causes Intermittent Claudication In Leg After Undergoing THR?

I am a 77 year old male, 190 lb, 5ft9" I had a thr a year ago and the surgery went really well. But-I had intermittant claudication in the same leg . I was referred to vascular specialist, had an angiogram and an external iliac occlusion diagnosed right over the implant.
Legs feel like jelly-had an epidural for the THR.......any clues?
Thanks J P McConnell-Wood
