Procedures of Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty

  • Make a small incision in the thigh, which allows access to the femoral artery.

  • Insert a guidewire into the artery.

  • The guidewire is threaded to the site of the blockage under the guidance of fluoroscopy,

  • A catheter with a small, collapsed balloon at its tip sheaths the wire and is pushed to the blockage.

  • The catheter enters the blockage, and the balloon is inflated, flattening the plaque against the artery walls.

  • The balloon may be coated in medicine (called drug-eluting balloon) that helps the artery heal from this process with less scarring.

  • Physician then deflates the balloon and withdraws the catheter.
