The First Experience of Targeted Catheter Atherectomy in Femoral Arterial Occlusive Disease

There has been demonstrated the possibility of using SilverHakw for targeted catheter atherectomy in the patient with femoral arterial occlusive disease by the example of clinical observation. The results of the performed targeted atherectomy prove the efficiency and safety of the mentioned device application in the present clinical situation. The targeted atherectomy technique enables to avoid stent implantation in complete arterial lumen recovery.
