The aim of this study is to compare in patients with critical limb ischemia the efficacy of angioplasty with different paclitaxel-eluting balloon devices for below-the-knee lesions in terms of restenosis.
Two devices will be evaluated: the Lutonix and the Freeway paclitaxel eluting balloons. A post-hoc analysis will compare the results with the historical data from DEBATE-BTK (NCT01558505).
