KEY POINTS The femoropopliteal (FP) artery is a common site for endovascular interventions. S.M.A.R.T.® stent is effective in treating FP lesions with results comparable to other treatment options. Without head‐to‐head randomized controlled trials, the ideal treatment strategy for FP lesions remains unknown.
