Retrograde percutaneous recanalization of chronic total occlusion of the coronary arteries: procedural outcomes and predictors of success in contemporary practice.
BACKGROUND Retrograde approach through collaterals has been introduced for percutaneous recanalization of chronic total occlusion (CTO) of the coronary arteries. We investigated the safety and efficacy of retrograde approaches used for percutaneous recanalization of CTO in a consecutive series of patients. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 157 consecutive patients who underwent retrograde CTO re...
متن کاملCurrent percutaneous recanalization of coronary chronic total occlusion.
Although successful recanalization rates of coronary chronic total occlusions have remained suboptimal in percutaneous coronary interventions, evolving techniques, including the retrograde approach, have raised hopes for better outcomes. With the advent of antiplatelet therapy and drug-eluting stents, along with conventional antegrade approaches, further progress can be expected in the "last fr...
متن کاملPercutaneous. Recanalization of Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) Coronary Arteries: Looking Back and Moving Forward
Chronic total occlusion (CTO) of coronary arteries is one of the most challenging PCI, usual‐ ly defined as more than three-month-old obstruction of a native coronary artery. This coro‐ nary lesion subset is a frequent finding in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) as CTOs have been reported in approximately one-third of patients undergoing diagnostic cor‐ onary angiography. However onl...
متن کاملRetrograde Approach for Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Large multicenter registries reporting outcomes associated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for the treatment of chronic total occlusions (CTO) have shown progressively increasing rates of overall procedural success with acceptably low complication rates in highly experienced centers. The significantly enhanced success rates of percutaneous CTO revascularization can be attributed t...
متن کاملChronic Total Occlusion of the Innominate Trunk: Successful Recanalization with Retrograde Technique and Dedicated Devices Borrowed from Percutaneous Coronary Interventions
The innominate trunk is a short vessel with crucial clinical relevance as in most patients it provides flow to the right subclavian artery and the right common carotid artery. Innominate trunk occlusions are particularly challenging, as results of endovascular therapy are suboptimal in terms of acute success, whereas open surgery poses a high risk of complications. The systematic application of...
