A 65 year old man, smoker, presented with a history of exertional shortness of breath over the last 4 months. He denied any chest discomfort. On examination jugular venous distension was noted with bilateral basal crackles. He got symptomatic relief after treatment with diuretics and nitrates. His echocardiogramme revealed global hypokinesia of left ventricle with severe mitral regurgitation. H...
متن کاملHybrid algorithm for chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention
The field of percutaneous intervention for chronic total occlusion (CTO) has enjoyed a rich period of innovation in recent years. The advent of novel techniques and technologies is revolutionizing the field, such that intervention can be considered for a greater number of patients with increasing anatomical complexity. However, uptake of these novel techniques into routine clinical practice has...
متن کاملChronic total occlusion of left main coronary artery.
Chronic total occlusion of left main coronary artery is a very rare angiographic finding as majority of these patients do not survive long enough to undergo coronary angiography. We describe a patient with angiographic findings of chronic total occlusion of left main coronary artery with left coronary circulation collateralized from right coronary artery.
متن کاملEditorial Chronic Coronary Total Occlusion
Chronic total occlusion (CTO) is quite frequent finding in coronary artery disease. Comprised of a combination of fibrocalcific and thrombotic elements, CTO has been reported in approximately onethird of patients undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography. This thematic issue goes in depth into “coronary CTO ” that still represents the last frontier in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). ...
متن کاملVentricular tachycardic storm with a chronic total coronary artery occlusion treated with percutaneous coronary intervention.
A 66-year-old man with a history of coronary artery disease was evaluated due to ventricular tachycardic (VT) storm. The patient continued to have frequent recurrences of VT despite treatment with amiodarone and lidocaine. Since the ventricular arrhythmia could be related to myocardial ischemia related to a chronic total occlusion (CTO) of the right coronary artery, the patient underwent succes...
