IVUS-assisted parallel wiring for coronary chronic total occlusion
In percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO), various techniques such as parallel wiring or intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided wiring have been developed.

New Advances in Chronic Total Occlusions [PDF]
Coronary chronic total occlusions (CTOs) still represent the greatest technical challenge that interventional cardiologists face. CTOs remain seriously undertreated with percutaneous techniques, far below their prevalence. One reason for the low uptake was the suboptimal CTO percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) success rates over a long period of ...

Recent studies have substantiated the role of the triglyceride glucose (TyG) index in predicting the prognosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients, while no relevant studies have revealed the association between the TyG index and coronary ...

System Tornus in chronic total occlusions [PDF]
Chronic total occlusions (CTO) remains a challenge in invasive cardiology. It requires not only a very experienced opera tor, but also a variety of equipment (dedicated to CTO) to be available in the operating room. The most common causes of procedure failure are an inability to: cross the lesion by wire (89%), to cross the lesion by balloon (9%), and ...

COMPLICATIONS OF RECANALIZATION OF CHRONIC TOTAL OCCLUSION [PDF]
Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) of Chronic Total Occlusions (CTO) is an accepted revascularization procedure. These complex procedures carry with them certain risks and potential complications. Complications of PCI such as contrast induced renal dysfunction, radiation, etc, assume more relevance given the length and complexity of these ...

Awake chronic mouse model of targeted pial vessel occlusion via photothrombosis [PDF]
Animal models of stroke are used extensively to study the mechanisms involved in the acute and chronic phases of recovery following stroke. A translatable animal model that closely mimics the mechanisms of a human stroke is essential in understanding ...

Recanalisation of coronary chronic total occlusions
Percutaneous treatment of coronary chronic total occlusions (CTO) has advanced greatly since its advent in the late 1970s through the development of dedicated wires and microcatheters, the improved skills of highly experienced operators and the adoption of new sophisticated strategies to guide procedural planning.
