Overview
A single-arm study to assess the utility of the Pantheris SV catheter in addressing peripheral artery disease in arteries located below the knee.

Patients presenting with reduced blood flow in the lower extremity arteries will under directional atherectomy, followed by adjunctive therapy as deemed necessary by the physician, and then adverse events and symptom resolution will be documented at 30 days, 6 months, and 1 year after the procedure. Primary safety endpoints are related to adverse events and will be assessed at the time of the procedure and at 30 days after the procedure. Effectiveness endpoints center on restoration of blood flow.
