The Impact of Calcium on Chronic Total Occlusion Management

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 ...

Antegrade Chronic Total Occlusion Strategies: A Technical Focus for 2020

Interventional Cardiology: Reviews, Research, Resources, 2020
Chronic total occlusions (CTOs) are common in patients with ischaemic heart disease. In many countries, patients with CTOs are underserved by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

The role of intravascular imaging in chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Chronic total occlusions (CTOs) represent the most complex subset of coronary artery disease and therefore careful planning of CTO percutaneous coronary recanalization (PCI) strategy is of paramount importance aiming to achieve procedural success, and ...

Definitions and Clinical Trial Design Principles for Coronary Artery Chronic Total Occlusion Therapies: CTO-ARC Consensus Recommendations.

Circulation, 2021
Over the past 2 decades, chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention has developed into its own subspecialty of interventional cardiology.

Switching From Proximal to Distal Radial Artery Access for Coronary Chronic Total Occlusion Recanalization

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Background Distal radial access (DRA) was recently introduced in the hopes of improving patient comfort by allowing the hand to rest in a more ergonomic position throughout percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), and potentially to further reduce the ...

Randomized Controlled Comparison of Optimal Medical Therapy with Percutaneous Recanalization of Chronic Total Occlusion (COMET-CTO).

International Heart Journal, 2021
The aim of this randomized prospective study was to evaluate the quality of life (QoL) using the "Seattle Angina Questionnaire" (SAQ) in patients with chronic total occlusion (CTO) in coronary arteries treated with either percutaneous coronary ...

Comparative Outcomes of Interventions for Femoropopliteal Chronic Total Occlusion Versus Non–Chronic Total Occlusion Lesions From the Multicenter XLPAD Registry

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Endovascular intervention of femoropopliteal chronic total occlusions (CTOs) is technically more complex. However, there is lack of comparative analysis between CTO and non‐CTO femoropopliteal interventions.

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.
