Inclusion Criteria
- Patient must have objective evidence of lower extremity ischemia and scheduled to undergo an endovascular recanalization.
- Occluded artery must be the native superficial femoral artery.
- Patient must have a totally occlusive lesion classified angiographically as absolute (100% occlusion with no flow).
- Patient's target vessel occlusion length is ≤ 30 cm.
- Patient's reference vessel diameter is greater than or equal to 3.0mm.
- Patient must be an acceptable candidate for PTA, peripheral artery bypass surgery or peripheral artery stent implantation.
- Female patients of child bearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to the study procedure.
- Patient or guardian must have been informed of the nature of the study, agree to its provisions, and provide written informed consent.
- Patient is ≥ 18 years of age.
Exclusion Criteria
- Patient has hypersensitivity or contraindication to aspirin, heparin or radiographic contrast agents which cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
- The patient requires immediate treatment in more than one occluded vessel, in any combination of grafts or native vessels.
- Patient's occlusion is a flush occlusion initiating less than 2cm from the ostium.
- Patient has planned infrainguinal intervention scheduled within 30 days after index procedure.
- The patient is currently participating in another investigational drug or device trial that may conflict with study data collection and has not completed the entire follow-up period.
- Patient has no collateral flow distal to the occlusion.
- Patient's target occlusion has a dissection that occurred within the past 60 days caused by a guidewire attempt.
- Patient has a history of bleeding diatheses, coagulopathy or will refuse blood transfusion in cases of emergency.
- Patient suffered recent (within the past 6 months) stroke or transient ischemic neurological attack (TIA).
- Patient suffered recent (within the past 6 months) significant gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding.
- Patient has other medical illnesses (i.e., cancer or congestive heart failure) that may cause the patient to be non-compliant with the protocol, confound the data interpretation or is associated with life-expectancy less than 1 year.
