Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial is testing a small tube-like device called the MicroStent® System, used along with a procedure that widens blood vessels, in patients with peripheral arterial disease who have blockages in the arteries below the knee. The stent helps keep the arteries open to ensure better blood flow. The Micro stent (MS) is a balloon expandable stent that allows the treatment of narrowings in distant and twisted coronary arteries.
