Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Stenosis (\> 75%) or occlusion of the superficial femoral artery (lesion up to 3 cm distal to Hunter's canal) * New TASC (2007) A, B, or C lesions * Vessel diameter between 4.5 and 6.5 cm * Debilitating claudication or critical limb ischemia (Rutherford 2 to 5) * At least 1 outflow vessel down to the ankle * Signed informed consent * \> Age 50, life expectancy \> 1 year * Capable of concluding the necessary follow-up visits
Exclusion criteria
* Refusal to participate in the study * Acute ischemia * Inflow lesions \> 50%, not successfully corrected before the procedure * Combination with other treatment with the exception of treatment to improve the inflow
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Patency as defined by absence of occlusion or >50% restenosis rate at the level the treated lesion as determined by duplex control. | 1 year |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Patency as defined by absence of occlusion, whether or not after additional intervention to maintain this patency (primary and secondary patency rate) | 1 year |
| Target lesion revascularisation rate as defined by the number of new revascularisations (endovascular or open) carried out due to restenosis at the level of the stented lesion | 1 year |
| Target vessel revascularisation rate as defined by the number of new revascularisations (endovascular or open) carried out due to restenosis or a new stenosis in the SFA. | 1 year |
| Limbs-salvage rate | 1 year |
| Clinical success rate defined on improvement in symptoms according to the Rutherford classification by a minimum of 1 class. | 1 year |
