  • Patient is willing to comply with specified follow-up evaluations at the specified times
  • Patient is \>18 years old
  • Patient understands the nature of the procedure and provides written informed consent, prior to enrolment in the study
  • Patient has a projected life-expectancy of at least 12 months
  • The treating physician consider the patient eligible for below-the-knee treatment with the PROMUS ELEMENT Stent (Boston Scientific) and PROMUS ELEMENT PLUS Stent (Boston Scientific)
  • Male, infertile female, or female of child bearing potential practicing an acceptable method of birth control with a negative pregnancy test within 7 days prior to study procedure
  • Angiographic
  • Single or multiple lesions with minimally 70% stenosis in one or more infrapopliteal arteries, including the tibiofibular trunk
  • A maximum of two focal target lesions in one or more infrapopliteal vessels
  • Length of lesion is maximally 40 mm, allowing maximally 2 planned stents to be implanted
  • Target vessel diameter visually estimated to be \>2.5mm and \<4.0mm
  • Guidewire and delivery system successfully traversed lesion
  • General

Exclusion

  • Patient refusing treatment
  • Previously implanted stent in the artery to be treated
  • Failed PTA of target lesion/vessel less than 3 months prior to study procedure

  • Patient presents with platelet levels above or below normal range
  • Non-atherosclerothic disease resulting in occlusion (e.g. embolism, Buerger's disease, vasculitis)
  • Severe medical comorbidities (untreated CAD/CHF, severe COPD, metastatic malignancy, dementia, etc) or other medical condition that would preclude compliance with the study protocol or 1-year life expectancy

  • Septicemia or bacteremia
  • Any previously known coagulation disorder, including hypercoagulability
  • Contraindication to anticoagulation or antiplatelet therapy
  • Known allergies to stent or stent components
