Myocardial Viability and Ischaemia in Chronic Total Occlusion [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Chronic total occlusion (CTO) affects 30% of patients undergoing coronary angiography rendering poorer outcomes. While percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can be technically successful, RCTs show no survival benefit ...

Septal Collaterals in a Chronic Total Occlusion. [PDF]
Percutaneous coronary intervention of a chronic total occlusion (CTO) should be considered in patients with angina or with documented ischemia. We present a patient with angina and stress echocardiography positive for ischemia in the anterior wall.The coronary angiography revealed a CTO in the left anterior descending artery, and a percutaneous ...

Antithrombotic Therapy in Chronic Total Occlusion Interventions
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 ...

Two life-threatening complications during chronic total occlusion management
A 50-year-old man, with one-month effort angina and a history of hypertension and dyslipidemia, was subjected to coronary angiography (CA), via the left radial approach, which revealed single-vessel chronic total occlusion (CTO) of the mid-right coronary

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Chronic Total Occlusion
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.
