Conventional Balloon Angioplasty versus Peripheral Cutting Balloon Angioplasty for Treatment of Femoropopliteal Artery In-Stent Restenosis: Initial Experience

Abstract

PCBA failed to prove superiority compared with CBA for treatment of femoropopliteal in-stent restenosis in this pilot study. In restenotic lesions with an average length of approximately 8 cm, both treatment modalities yielded disappointing 6-month patency rates.
