Single vessel angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to open narrowed or blocked arteries, usually in the heart. The doctor inserts a catheter into an artery, often in the leg or wrist, and guides it to the affected area using X-rays. A balloon at the end of the catheter is inflated to compress plaque against the artery wall, improving blood flow. No accessories such as stents are used during this procedure.
