Brief summary
* Prospective, single-arm, multi-center registry study * A total of 150 subjects with femoropopliteal artery disease who meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included. * Patients will be followed clinically for 12 months after the procedure. * Duplex ultrasound, CT or catheter-based angiography follow-up according to participating hospital's protocol will be performed at 12 months. * Presence of stent fracture will be evaluated by plain radiography or fluoroscopy at 12 months. * Quality of life by standardized questionnaires (at baseline & at 1 & 12 months)
