We exploit a two-dimensional model (Ghosh et al. in Q J Mech Appl Math 71(3):349–367, 2018; Kozlov and Nazarov in Dokl Phys 56(11):560–566, 2011, J Math Sci 207(2):249–269, 2015) describing the elastic behavior of the wall of a flexible blood vessel which takes interaction with surrounding muscle tissue and the 3D fluid flow into account. We study time periodic flows in an infinite cylinder with such intricate boundary conditions. The main result is that solutions of this problem do not depend on the period and they are nothing else but the time independent Poiseuille flow. Similar solutions of the Stokes equations for the rigid wall (the no-slip boundary condition) depend on the period and their profile depends on time.
