STENTYS announced that the first interventions using its self-expanding drug-eluting stent to treat BTK (below-the-knee) arterial disease have been performed during two live-case sessions broadcasted during LINC, the Leipzig Interventional Course. The two procedures on patients suffering from critical lower-limb ischemia (CLI) were performed by the Leipzig University Hospital angiology team (Dr. Andrej Schmidt, Dr. Sven Bräunlich, Dr. Matthias Ulrich). Several overlapping STENTYS stents were successfully implanted to treat the long lesions of the leg arteries.
