In medicine, angioplasty is "endovascular reconstruction of an artery, which may include the removal of atheromatous plaque and/or the endothelial lining as well as simple dilatation. These are procedures performed by catheterization. When reconstruction of an artery is performed surgically, it is called endarterectomy."[1]

Angioplasty may be used to treat coronary heart disease, renal artery stenosis, and carotid stenosis. Angioplasty of the heart is called percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.

As compared to surgery:
