This study revealed that the successful vessel preparation (VP) before DCB and preballoonsize to reference vessel diameter ratio were independently associated with primary patency in DCB femoropopliteal intervention. When successful VP was achieved only before DCB treatment, the clinical outcomes were comparable between high-dose DCB and low-dose DCB at midterm follow-up.To maximized DCB efficacy, successful VP is very important in daily clinical practice.
