Below-the-ankle Angioplasty: Current Evidence and Future Perspectives

Over 20 million adults in Europe suffer from peripheral arterial disease (PAD). The annual incidence of PAD is approximately 2.4%, while the annual incidence of critical limb ischaemia (CLI), the last and most severe stage of PAD, has been reported to be 0.4%. Endovascular angioplasty and/or stentin...
