Abstract

The concept of transluminal angioplasty was first introduced by Charles Dotter in 1964 as a radical new concept in the treatment of vascular disease, sowing the seeds for new investigations. A new balloon dilation catheter was developed by Andreas Gruentzig and thereafter transluminal angioplasty entered a new era, with rapid growth in popularity and demand. In spite of this rapid progress, the well-known limitations of balloon angioplasty have resulted in research to develop new technologies for safer and longer lasting arterial recanalization [1–9].
