Femoral Endarterectomy

What is a Femoral Endarterectomy?

A femoral endarterectomy is done to remove fatty buildup (plaque) from the femoral artery. This is a large blood vessel in the leg. When plaque builds up in the artery, it can make it hard for blood to flow in your leg.

Patch Angioplasty

Patch Angioplasty is a local procedure whereby the artery is opened, the inside of the vessel is cleaned out and a patch of vein or prosthetic material is used to widen that area of the artery.
