Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for peripheral artery disease (PAD) commonly leads to dissections which are associated with higher target lesion revascularization (TLR) rates. Clinical and economic consequences of dissection management in the femoropopliteal artery following PTA, and specifically the potential economic benefit of focal dissection repair using the novel Tack Endovascular System, remain unknown.
