In the last 20 years, peripheral artery disease (PAD) has been increasingly recognized as a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. The endovascular treatment of PAD has seen a marked rise as minimally invasive techniques and devices have been refined. Two newer devices, drug-eluting stents and drug-eluting balloons, are on the forefront of the battle against limb loss from PAD. This review focuses on the data backing the use of drug-eluting technologies for use in the peripheral arterial system.
在过去20年里，外周动脉疾病（PAD）在美国已日益被视为发病和死亡的一个重要原因。随着微创技术和器械的不断完善，PAD的血管内治疗显著增加。两种较新的器械，药物洗脱支架和药物洗脱球囊，处于对抗PAD导致肢体丧失的前沿。本综述重点关注支持在外周动脉系统中使用药物洗脱技术的数据。
