“…We found that successful percutaneous recanalization of a CTO was associated with substantial improvement in patients' angina frequency, physical limitation and quality of life early after the procedure. In fact, the magnitude of these benefits is similar to the improvements in SAQ scores found after revascularization with CABG 21 or PCI of non-CTO lesions. 22,23 Further, we found that these benefits were greatest in those patients with preprocedural angina.…”

“…9 Similarly, an observational registry identified that patients who underwent surgical revascularization had better symptom control and quality of life and that most of this difference was attributable to PCI patients who required a repeat procedure. 10 If the health status (ie, angina and quality of life) benefits of CABG surgery are most evident in those PCI patients who develop clinical restenosis, then it is reasonable to consider preferential referral of patients at high risk of restenosis to CABG surgery. Currently, however, no data demonstrate that preprocedural risk for restenosis is associated with differences in outcomes between CABG surgery and PCI.…”
