Brief Summary
This study is a prospective, multicenter, real world, observational study, which aims at evaluating the safety, efficacy and economic cost of endovascular treatments for endovascular therapies in chronic femoropopliteal occlusive disease with severe calcification. It is estimated that 400 subjects diagnosed with chronic femoropopliteal occlusive disease with severe calcification and receive endovascular treatments will be enrolled in eight centers nationwide from January 2021 to December 2022. All the subjects will be under follow-up for two years. There is no restriction on the endovascular techniques. The primary outcomes include the technical success rate of each endovascular techniques and the reintervention rate driven by lesions' clinical symptoms.

Eligibility Criteria
Chronic femoropopliteal occlusive disease with severe calcification
You may qualify if:
- Rutherford stages 2-6
- The target vessel (femoral and/or popliteal artery) has at least ≥90% stenosis or occlusion with the moderate to severe calcification (defined as \>5 cm continuous calcification)
- For patients with both lower limbs to be treated, the side with severer calcification is selected. If the calcification is similar in the two sides, the first one to be treated is selected.
- At least one outflow artery (which is patent in \> 1/3 length) in the calf connects the popliteal artery.
- Patients who failed the first treatment because the guide wire could not pass through the lesion can still be selected if the second endovascular treatment succeeds.
- There is no restriction on the types of endovascular techniques and devices.
You may not qualify if:
- Life expectation less than one year
- There is several infection and/or major tissue loss in the leg. Even if after revascularization, patient still need amputation.
- The quality of patients' life cannot be assessed by vascular quality of life questionnaire due to difficulties in communication.
- Chronic femoropopliteal occlusive disease without calcification.
- Patients with acute arterial thrombosis.
- Limbs that have been treated with the femoral and popliteal artery bypass surgery.
- Pregnant women
- Allergic to contrast medium
- Participating in other drug or device studies currently.
- Systematic infection and/or coagulation disorders 14 days before the enrollment.
- Patients have severe systematic disease that cannot be controlled currently such as severe heart, lung disease, live function disorder, end stage cancer, etc
- Stroke, myocardial infarction, bleeding in the past 6 month
