Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

The percutaneous treatment of peripheral vascular disease has advanced over the past two decades and is fast becoming the preferred treatment of choice. Stents have positively altered the clinical outcomes in peripheral revascularizations. Anatomic variability is an important factor in determining if the patient is an ideal percutaneous interventional candidate. Future technological developments in percutaneous interventions will help include new patients with peripheral vascular disease previously considered nonideal percutaneous candidates.
