Summary

This is a multi-center, non-randomized, single arm study to compare PTA and primary stenting using a single PROTÉGÉ® EverFlex™ stent to performance goals of PTA alone in the treatment of atherosclerotic superficial femoral artery (SFA) and proximal popliteal lesions.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Stenotic, restenotic (from PTA or adjunct therapy, not including stents or stent grafts) or occluded lesion(s) located in the native superficial femoral artery or superficial femoral and proximal popliteal arteries.
  • Symptomatic femoral-popliteal atherosclerosis.
  • Willing to comply with all follow-up evaluations at the specified times.
  • Provides written informed consent prior to enrollment in the study.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Previously implanted stent(s) or stent graft(s) in the target vessel.
  • Planned use of devices other than angioplasty balloons during procedure.
  • Received endovascular treatment of the target lesion (except stents/stent grafts) within six months of the index procedure.
  • Life expectancy of less than 12 months.
  • Symptomatic femoral disease in the opposite limb.
