Crossing Total Occlusions: Navigating Towards Recanalization
Chronic total occlusions (CTOs) represent the "last frontier" of percutaneous interventions. The main technical challenges lies in crossing the guidewire into the distal true lumen, which is primarily due to three problems: device buckling during initial puncture, inadequate visualization, and the inability to actively navigate through the CTO. To improve the success rate and to identify future...
متن کاملPercutaneous Recanalization of Coronary Chronic Total Occlusions: Current Devices and Specialized Wire Crossing Techniques
Treatment of coronary chronic total occlusions (CTOs) remains a challenging obstacle, posing a considerable barrier to achieving successful complete revascularization. By nature of their complexity, percutaneous CTO interventions are associated with lower rates of procedural success, higher complication rates, greater radiation exposure and longer procedure times compared with non-CTO intervent...

متن کاملPercutaneous recanalization of total occlusions of the iliac vein.
BACKGROUND Venovenous bypass has been the standard in relieving chronic total occlusions of iliac veins. The technical feasibility of percutaneous recanalization was previously reported. Routine applicability of this technique in a wide spectrum of lesions and patients, stent patency, and clinical outcome forms the basis of this presentation. METHODS During a 9-year period, 167 limbs in 159 u...
متن کاملRecanalization of infrapopliteal occlusions eview
Crural vessel occlusive disease is a common finding in patients presenting with symptomatic chronic critical limb ischemia. This patient group has poor treatment prospects with high morbidity and mortality. Furthermore, infrapopliteal vascular disease is by its very nature technically challenging to deal with by endovascular or surgical techniques. The multilevel distribution of the disease pro...
