Summary

This study is an investigator-initiated study. The study will be performed as a prospective, randomized, controlled multi-center trial to evaluate the safety and efficiency of Xpert stents compared to PTA in patients with chronic distal artery occlusions or stenosis undergoing catheter revascularization. Patients will be eligible for randomization if they are over 18 years old, if they undergo percutaneous catheter revascularization of an artery below the knee stenosis/occlusion that is less than 15 centimeters in length. Up to two vessels may be treated in this study. All lesions greater than 50% in the below the knee artery region have to be treated either with PTA or stenting according to the randomization.
