Background: Endovascular therapy (EVT) with devices such as drug-coated balloons (DCBs) and drug-eluting stents (DESs) for atherosclerotic disease in the femoropopliteal (FP) artery has been established. However, EVT using drug-based devices for chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) remains chall...
