Chronic total coronary occlusion percutaneous intervention.
Chronic total coronary occlusions (CTO) are encountered frequently, found in up to 50% of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) referred for elective angiography. Treatment strategy for an individual patient is often changed on the basis of the presence or absence of a CTO (1). Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of CTO remains challenging, with observed success rates that are signif...
متن کاملTechnical and procedural advances in percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion
2015 Chronic total occlusions (CTO) are the most challenging lesions to treat using coronary angioplasty. The benefits of CTO coronary intervention (PCI) are symptom relief, and improved left ventricular function and long-term prognosis of the patient. In recent years, interventional cardiologists in Japan have made a great contribution to the progress of CTO PCI. Innovative techniques, includi...
متن کاملImpact of Hemodialysis on Procedural Outcomes of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Chronic Total Occlusion: Insights From the Japanese Multicenter Registry
BACKGROUND Among patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion (CTO-PCI), patients on long-term hemodialysis are at significantly high risk for cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. However, clinical or angiographic predictors that might aid in better patient selection remain unclear. We aimed to assess the acute impact of hemodialysis in patients who un...

A 67-year-old man with coronary artery disease and previous coronary underwent successful Guideliner reverse CART percutaneous coronary intervention of a chronic total occlusion of the right coronary artery. He later developed evidence of myocardial ischemia, and imaging, including angiogram, echocardiogram, and cardiac computed tomography revealing active dye extravasation from the previously ...
متن کاملChronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Evidence and Controversies
C oronary chronic total occlusions (CTOs) are defined as 100% occlusions with TIMI (Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction) 0 flow with at least a 3-month duration. Treatment options for patients with coronary CTOs include lifestyle changes and medications (as is appropriate for all patients with coronary artery disease) and coronary revascularization with either percutaneous coronary interventi...
