Abstract
Transluminal angioplasty was initially conceived by Dotter and Judkins in 1964 [1]. Unfortunately, the technical limitations of their stiff, coaxial, Teflon catheters prevented widespread acceptance and use of their technique. When Gruntzig and Hopff introduced the flexible, polyvinyl double-lumen balloon catheter in 1974, they revolutionized angioplasty and set the stage for its extensive use to treat coronary and peripheral vascular occlusive disease [2]. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is undeniably associated with lower morbidity and cost than conventional open bypass surgery. However, the vascular interventionist (i.e., radiologist, cardiologist, or surgeon) must understand the clinical indications, lasting benefit, and complications of PTA to use this therapy appropriately.
