Abstract:
Endovascular therapy has become the first-line strategy for most peripheral artery disease cases.Currently,many guidelines recommend endovascular therapy as the first choice for arteriosclerosis obliterans.Recently,drug-eluting stent and drug-coated balloon are available.The clinical outcomes have been greatly improved with the evolution of devices.However,the long-term outcomes of endovascular therapy for arteriosclerosis obliterans are still not satisfied.Many centers treat arteriosclerosis obliterans using endovascular therapy in appropriately.In this editorial,an evidence-based approach and some strategies will be discussed to standardize the endovascular treatment and improve the result of endovascular therapy for arteriosclerosis obliterans.
