Conclusions A new paradigm is emerging for the treatment of FemPop ISR PTA alone has failed against 3 different treatment strategies DCB is effective for lesions less than 10cm More data is needed for Tosaka 3, cost effectiveness DES is effective for moderate length lesions Not FDA approved Both laser atherectomy and Viabahn are effective for long lesions Both are FDA approved for ISR Combination therapy needs further investigation
