The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the Scuba™ stent in subjects with symptomatic claudication or rest pain and angiographic confirmation of de novo or restenotic lesions in the common and/or external iliac artery.
Interventional revascularization strategies for peripheral arterial disease currently available include both surgical and endovascular approaches such as percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), either as a stand-alone procedure or with the placement of a stent. Cobalt-chromium (CoCr) is an alloy that has been used safely in the manufacture of surgical implants for use in contact with blood, soft tissue and bone for over 10 years. This study will evaluate the SCUBA™ peripheral balloon-expandable cobalt chromium tent system in iliac arteries.

Composite of Major Adverse Events (MAE) Defined as the Occurrence of In-hospital Myocardial Infarction (MI) or Target Segment Revascularization, Target Limb Loss, or Death Within 9 Months Post-procedure.
The analysis is based on the percentage of Intent to Treat subjects (ITT) who experienced the primary endpoint or who had adequate follow-up for the 9-month analysis. A subject had adequate follow-up if he/she had an event or had a follow-up of at least 256 days, allowing for a visit window of 9 months +/- 14 days.
Time frame: In-hospital and 9 Months
Major Adverse Vascular Events Through 30 Days as a Composite of (MI, Death or Stroke, Stent Thrombosis, Distal Embolization, Arterial Rupture/Perforation, Acute Limb Ischemia, Target Limb Loss, Procedure-related Bleeding Event Requiring Transfusion)
The analysis is based on the number of patients who experienced either an MI, died, had a stroke, stent thrombosis, distal embolization, arterial rupture/perforation limb ischemia, lost a target limb, or had a bleeding event due to the procedure within 30 days after being treated with the Scuba iliac stent.
Time frame: 30 Days
Device Success
The outcome is based on the successful delivery and deployment of the Scuba iliac stent and the intact retrieval of the delivery system.
Time frame: At time of deployment
Procedural Success
The outcome is based on the successful delivery and deployment of the Scuba iliac stent and the intact retrieval of the delivery system \[Device Success\] and the achievement of \<30% residual stenosis immediately after stent deployment, without occurrence of in-hospital Major Adverse Events (MAE).
Time frame: Up to the moment the catheter sheath introducer has been removed
Clinical Success
Early Clinical Success (30 days) is defined as improvement of the Rutherford-Becker scale criteria by greater than or equal to one category as obtained at the 30 day follow-up visit.

Time frame: 30 Days
Clinical Success
Late Clinical Success (6 months) is defined as a maintained improvement in Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) or Thigh-Brachial Index (TBI) assessed as either a) normalized (0.90) or b) an increase by 0.1 from the baseline level and had not decreased by more than 0.15 from the maximum result observed immediately post-procedure. In the absence of ABI/TBI data, Late Clinical Success was assessed in the same manner as Early Clinical Success.
Time frame: 6 Months
Clinical Success
Late Clinical Success (9 months) is defined as a maintained improvement in Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) or Thigh-Brachial Index (TBI) assessed as either a) normalized (0.90) or b) an increase by 0.1 from the baseline level and had not decreased by more than 0.15 from the maximum result observed immediately post-procedure. In the absence of ABI/TBI data, Late Clinical Success was assessed in the same manner as Early Clinical Success.
Time frame: 9 Months
Patency - Primary
Patients were assumed primary patent if the target vessel had continuous flow without revascularization, bypass, or amputation at 6 months.
Time frame: 6 Months
Patency - Primary Assisted
Primary assisted patency is defined as continuous flow assisted with a revascularization when the target vessel has restenosed (0-99%) at any time post-procedure through 6 months.
Time frame: 6 Months
Patency - Secondary
Secondary patency is defined as reestablishment of flow to distal arteries after 100% occlusion has occurred at the target vessel at post-procedure through 6 months.
Time frame: 6 Months

Secondary patency is defined as reestablishment of flow to distal arteries after 100% occlusion has occurred at the target vessel at post-procedure through 9 months.
Time frame: 9 Months
Target Limb Revascularization
Restenosis is defined as a 50% or greater diameter stenosis observed post-procedure through the 9 month timepoint. Restenosis is initially assessed by Duplex Ultrasound of the iliac artery with the common femoral artery.
Time frame: 9 Months
Restenosis Rate (≥ 50% Diameter Stenosis by Duplex Ultrasound Determination)
Restenosis is defined as a 50% or greater diameter stenosis observed post-procedure through the 9 month timepoint. Restenosis is initially assessed by Duplex Ultrasound of the iliac artery with the common femoral artery.
Time frame: 9 Months
Death
Death can be classified as one of three categories: cardiac, vascular, or non-cardiovascular. All deaths are considered cardiac unless an unequivocal non-cardiac cause can be established.
Time frame: 9 Months
Target Limb Loss
Amputation of the target limb by surgical removal of tissue anywhere from the toe to hip in the ipsilateral limb of the target segment. Amputations are subclassified as: Above the knee, Below the knee, Transmetatarsal, and Toe.
Time frame: 9 Months
