Sinopse

Dr. Steve Levin, Vascular Fellow at the University of Minnesota, defines critical limb ischemia, identifies the evolving role of drug eluting stents in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease and compares how drug eluting stents have performed relative to balloon angioplasty and bare metal stenting in patients suffering from critical limb ischemia.
