Key Points Consistent and durable patency and clinical benefit after initially successful infrapopliteal percutaneous balloon transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for critical limb ischemia remains an unmet need. Permanently implanted metallic stents for suboptimal initial infrapopliteal PTA results also have limited patency and clinical results as well as other drawbacks. In 48 critical limb ischemia patients with infrapopliteal lesions < 50 mm length, everolimus eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (EEBVS) achieved 90% primary patency and freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization at 2 years follow‐up with no late scaffold thrombosis.
