Femoro-Popliteal Angioplasty and Stenting

The market for Fem-Pop Angioplasty & Stenting has experienced explosive growth recently mainly due to the launch and acceptance of novel atherectomy devices like the SilverHawk, and the regulatory approval of dedicated Stents.

At the end of 2005 the market was estimated at $470 million, growing by 30% over the previous year.

Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) of the Femoro-popliteal System is a major cause of morbidity and limb loss accounting for over 300,000 amputations in the developed world every year.

Medical therapy is often ineffective and open surgery has substantial risks. Less invasive endovascular approaches has been utilized for several decades in the Femoropopliteal System however, a major limiting factor was late restenosis.

Recent breakthroughs in stent material and design and the introduction of dedicated flexible stents with high radial force that can deliver superior outcome to open surgery promise to rewrite protocols of care and revolutionize the market for Lower Limb Endovascular Revascularization and Repair.
