The Impact of Calcium on Chronic Total Occlusion Management [PDF]
Interventional Cardiology: Reviews, Research, Resources, 2021 Coronary artery calcification is prevalent in chronic total occlusions (CTO), particularly in those of longer duration and post-coronary artery bypass. The presence of calcium predicts lower procedural success rates and a higher risk of complications of ...

Antithrombotic Therapy in Chronic Total Occlusion Interventions
US Cardiology Review, 2021 Chronic total occlusion (CTO) recanalization is among the most complex subsets of coronary interventions. Hence, optimum peri- and post-procedural anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy is key for the achievement of successful revascularization and ...

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Chronic Total Occlusion
US Cardiology Review, 2020 Treatment of coronary chronic total occlusions represents one of the major challenges in the field of interventional cardiology. This is due to the complexity of these procedures and to the relatively higher risk of complications.

Coronary Artery Chronic Total Occlusion
Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications, 2016 Coronary artery chronic total occlusion (CTO) is defined as an occluded coronary artery segment without anterograde flow for at least three months. It can be classified as a “true” or “functional” CTO based on flow characteristics.
