Superficial femoral artery stenting is a procedure used to treat blockages or narrowing in the superficial femoral artery, which supplies blood to the thigh and leg. The procedure involves inserting a stent into the affected artery to keep it open, restoring normal blood flow to the leg and alleviating symptoms such as pain or cramping.
This procedure is highly effective in treating peripheral artery disease (PAD) and helps improve circulation, reduce pain, and improve overall leg function in patients with PAD.
