Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is a procedure that can open up a blocked blood vessel using a small, flexible plastic tube, or catheter, with a "balloon" at the end of it. When the tube is in place, it inflates to open the blood vessel, or artery, so that normal blood flow is restored.
A stent is a small, metal mesh tube that keeps the artery open. Angioplasty and stent placement are two ways to open blocked peripheral arteries. A coronary artery stent is a small, metal mesh tube that is placed inside a coronary artery to help keep the artery open.

Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to open a blocked artery. Your physician will follow this procedure: A small incision (cut) is made in the thigh, allowing access to the femoral artery. A guide wire is inserted into the artery.
An angioplasty can be used to treat problems in many areas of the body. An angioplasty is called a PTCA when used to treat a coronary artery obstruction and a PTA when treating other arteries. The "P" stands for the work percutaneous which means through the skin.
Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI, formerly known as angioplasty with stent) is a non-surgical procedure that uses a catheter (a thin flexible tube) to place a small structure called a stent to open up blood vessels in the heart that have been narrowed by plaque buildup, a condition known as atherosclerosis.
