Peripheral artery disease [PDF]

BMJ, 2018
### What you need to know Peripheral artery disease affects around 13% of the Western population who are more than 50 years old.1 It is most commonly due to atherosclerosis, where an atherosclerotic plaque causes arterial stenosis or occlusion.

Atherectomy for peripheral arterial disease [PDF]

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020
Symptomatic peripheral arterial disease (PAD) has several treatment options, including angioplasty, stenting, exercise therapy, and bypass surgery. Atherectomy is an alternative procedure, in which atheroma is cut or ground away within the artery.
