Introduction/aim: Occlusive disease of lower limb arteries have been so far traditionally best treated with bypass surgery, but we want to find minimally invasive approach that should be at least as good as conventional surgery, and hopefully better. The aim of this study was to evaluate SMART Control stents (Cordis, J&J) in Trans Atlantic Society Consensus (TASC) B and C femoropopliteal lesions during one-year follow-up.
Methods: Retrospective nonrandomized analysis included forty arteries in consecutive 40 patients who were stented with SMART Control stents.
