It was reported through a clinical registry that during the index procedure, a lutonix percutaneous transluminal drug coated balloon (dcb) dilatation catheter was used to treat the target lesion located in the left popliteal artery.Approximately 1 month after the index procedure, the patient¿s left popliteal vessel was reportedly reoccluded.A revascularization was performed and the hcp deemed it was successful.Approximately 10 months after the reintervention on (b)(6) 2016, a second reintervention, on (b)(6) 2017 was performed involving the target lesion segment.Approximately 1 month later on (b)(6) 2017, the patient's left leg was amputated above the knee due to critical limb ischemia.The investigator assessed the reocclusion/amputation was not related to the study device or procedure.The sample was discarded by the user facility and is not available for evaluation.No further adverse patient outcomes were reported and the subject withdrew from the clinical study.
