Mortality benefits with CTO PCI: moving the goalpost closer.
Chronic total occlusions (CTO), defined as a complete arterial occlusion [TIMI (thrombolysis in myocardial infarction) 0 or 1 flow] of at least 3 months duration, occurs in 10–20% of coronary angiographic studies, and 5% of coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) studies. However, CTO revascularization, whether by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or bypass, remains at relatively ...
متن کامل[Successful recanalisation of RCA CTO using retrograde approach].
A 51-year-old female two years after CABG presented with unstable angina and inferior wall ischaemia. Coronary angiography revealed occluded graft to RCA and chronic total occlusion of RCA with good collateral flow from distal LAD to RCA. The CTO was successfully crossed and dilated through epicardial collaterals from distal LAD (retrograde approach). Finally, antegrade angioplasty with two ste...
متن کاملLong-term MACCE Rate after Retrograde Compared to Antegrade Recanalization of Chronic Total Coronary Occlusions
Background: The recanalization success rate of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) can be increased by the retrograde approach. However, the long-term outcome of patients undergoing retrograde procedures is unknown. Aim: We aimed to evaluate the long-term MACCE (major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event) rate (death, myocardial infarction, coronary arte...
متن کاملApplication of a snare technique in retrograde chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention – a step by step practical approach and an observational study
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) has recently become popular among interventional cardiologists. CTO originating from the ostium has been one of the most difficult CTO lesions to treat with PCI for a number of reasons. Our aim was to illustrate a specific technique during retrograde CTO PCI referred to as the "snare technique."We retrospectively examine...
متن کاملRetrograde Coronary Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention
Coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO) is a frequent finding in patients with coronary artery disease. It remains one of the most challenging subsets, accounting for 10-20% of all percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Although remarkable progress in PCI has been made, it is reasonable to state that successful recanalization of CTO represents the "last frontier" of PCI. PCI of CTOs has been...
