Abstract
Endovascular treatment is effective for symptomatic peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Following recent device improvements, favorable long-term outcomes have been achieved in iliac arteries as well as small arteries such as the femoral and popliteal arteries.This paper outlines the history and recent advances in endovascular treatment of peripheral vascular diseases as well as the characteristics and usage of devices. The history and the advances in endovascular treatment of peripheral vascular disease have been parallel, with the development of devices such as catheters and stents. Accordingly, endovascular treatment is now recommended in guidelines as the first-line for PAD.
