A complex dissected chronic occlusion: targeted balloon dilatation of false lumen to access true lumen, combined localized subintimal tracking and reentry, parallel wire, contralateral injection and a useful antegrade lumen re-entry technique

Heart International, 2012
Chronic total occlusion (CTO) angioplasty is one of the most challenging procedures remaining for the interventional operator. Recanalizing CTOs can improve exercise capacity, symptoms, left ventricular function and possibly reduce mortality.

Management of Chronic Total Occlusion of Coronary Artery

International Journal of Angiology, 2020
Chronic total occlusion (CTO) of a coronary artery is typically defined as a completely occluded artery without any antegrade flow and a duration of at least 3 months.

Editorial (Thematic Issue: Chronic Coronary Total Occlusion) [PDF]

Current Cardiology Reviews, 2015
Chronic total occlusion (CTO) is quite frequent finding in coronary artery disease. Comprised of a combination of fibrocalcific and thrombotic elements, CTO has been reported in approximately onethird of patients undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography. This thematic issue goes in depth into “coronary CTO ” that still represents the last frontier in

A Robust Heparin‐Mimicking Polyglycerol‐Based Coating for Blood‐Contacting Devices with Long‐Term Hemocompatibility and Preliminary Anti‐Inflammatory Properties

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A robust heparin‐mimicking coating based on sulfated polyglycerol is constructed via layer‐by‐layer assembly on bloodcontacting surfaces. The coating exhibits long‐term anticoagulant and anti‐inflammatory properties by resisting protein adsorption, preventing platelet activation, and suppressing immune responses, offering a promising strategy for ...

Predictors of procedural success and improvement of left ventricular ejection fraction after successful recanalization of coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO)

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2017
Objectives: This study sought to examine the pre-interventional parameters for procedural success of CTO angioplasty and to assess improvement of Left ventricular ejection fraction after successful angioplasty of CTO. Background: Chronic total occlusions

Injectable Dual‐Crosslinked Poly(oligo(Ethylene Glycol) Methacrylate) Hydrogels Inspired by Mussel Adhesion for Cutaneous Wound Healing and Functional Tissue Regeneration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Injectable POEGMA‐DA hydrogels, dual‐crosslinked via dopamine self‐polymerization and dynamic hydrazone bonds, provide a safer alternative to invasive wound closure methods and toxic bioadhesives. Mimicking skin‐like mechanics, they achieve effective tissue adhesion for acute dermal wounds, supporting improved healing outcomes, including reducing ...

Successful depiction of systemic collateral supply to pulmonary artery in CTEPH using time-resolved 4D CT angiography: a case report

Pulmonary Circulation, 2020
A 49-year-old man with CTEPH (pre-procedural mean pulmonary artery pressure: 36 mmHg) underwent balloon pulmonary angioplasty. Chronic total occlusion of the left inferior pulmonary artery trunk was observed.
