Case Study: Calcification Treated

Posted on January 22, 2020

This patient came in with tired, heavy legs, due to decreased circulation because of plaque build-up in her Saphenous Femoral Artery. A short walk was nearly unbearable because of the immediate pain. A quick procedure allowed this grandmother of 5 to leave the office with immediate relief, and a hope that she could enjoy playing with her grandchildren again.

Calcifications like these, when left untreated, may lead to an increased risk of Peripheral Artery Disease. With this procedure, patients can be on their way home, 2 hours after surgery, with immediate relief from these agonizing symptoms!
